JBA Bentley recieve commendation for works at Orton Sluice

JBA-Bentley were commissioned by the Environment Agency to inspect, scope, design and construct refurbishment works to Orton Sluice, Peterborough. The existing structure was constructed in 1939 and due to the expense of dewatering the structure to thoroughly inspect and maintain the gates, only essential maintenance of the below water equipment had been carried out. When de-watered, the gates were found to be in irreparable condition.
