There has been concern that the ‘step’ down in the bed of the Gill Beck at the top of the underpass below the main Otley Road might be a barrier to movement of fish. Effectively this is like a small weir. Trouble is that rectifying it would likely be a substantial project.
Having just seen this video (second clip in tweet below), I’m encouraged that maybe they can make it up anyway.
