This is a visualisation of the Colwick (Holme Sluices) fish pass project in Nottingham that will be starting in Autumn 2021 and completed in 2023.

It is the first scheme of the ambitious Trent Gateway Partnership which aims to remove all barriers to fish migration along the River Trent.

Holme Sluices, owned by the Environment Agency, is the largest single barrier to fish migration on the River Trent. The sluice gates span the river and maintain different upstream and downstream water levels, leaving fish unable to pass through.
