We understand that Sally boats is to increase its stag party business. The boats are likely to run between Bradford on Avon marina and Avoncliff, with the Cross Guns as their destination. This will probably mean late night drunken disturbances along the towpath in and around Avoncliff at weekends. If you experience any problems with drunken hire boat crews, you can report incidents on the police non-emergency number 101 and also complain to BW’s Kennet and Avon Manager Mark Stephens: mark.stephens@britishwaterways.co.uk. Reporting incidents and making complaints is the first step in gathering any evidence that may be needed to minimise the impact on boaters and local residents.
