Anglian Pass being developed for boaters
Boaters will have the option to purchase an Anglian Pass which will allow them to navigate unrestricted across neighbouring navigations.
From:
26 January 2021 A new Anglian Pass will hopefully be in place for the start of the new boating season, April 2021.
The Environment Agency, the Conservators of the River Cam and the Middle Level Commissioners are developing a new pass together.
The Anglian pass will cover the River Nene, the Great Ouse system, the Middle Level Navigation and the River Cam.
This will allow boaters to move between different waterways without having to pay multiple registration fees. The price of the Anglian Pass will cover this.
