Dredging is due to commence on Wednesday 17th December to Monday 22nd December, conditions dependent.
The hopper will be lifted into the water at Newark Marina and be assembled at Carlton Wharf, due to restrictions at Trent Bridge.
The hopper will then be moored up over the festive break, ready for further dredging to commence in the new year.
