Draining the canal
Helpful member
Does anyone know why the canal is being drained? We saw fish in hardly any water, suffering.

Hi I cycled down the canal passed the Las Ramblas entrance at La Fuente towards Campamor. About 2 kilometres further down from there on the canal, workman were resurfacing parts of the canal and it’s walls with heavy vehicles and lots of concrete and cement. One mini bulldozer was actually in the bottom of the canal levelling the new concrete floor.
I strongly suspect this is why they have had to drain the canal. I also noted from my bike ride that many of the local orchards reservoirs were very full, so suspect the orange and lemons growers were forewarned about the canal closures and filled up their reserves before hand .
Hope this helps regards Ian
