Boating
on the Thames (Making the most of the Thames)
Port of London Authority
The
Tideway section of the lower River Thames is a particularly
challenging and potentially hazardous section of the river
with fast-moving tidal water and high volumes of river traffic.
There are also official "rules of the road" and
signals on bridges which paddlers should understand and obey.
The
Port of London Authority has a very useful website loaded
with information and advice for recreational river users.
All paddlers using the Tideway should familiarise themselves
with this material for their own safety. There is a section
devoted to canoeists and there is also a strongly
recommended useful instructional
video entitled Rowing Through Central London.

The
Rivers Access Campaign
The purpose of the Rivers Access Campaign is not only to raise awareness
of the access issue on inland waterways in England (and Wales) but to
bring about a change. The campaign is being undertaken by Canoe England
on behalf all members of the public.
In England and Wales, unlike elsewhere in the world, the public do not
have an automatic right to have access to rivers. Scotland already enjoys
that right. Access to the UK’s waterways is highly restricted (EG
- Owners of river banks have legal right to stop people paddling), and
maintenance of the waterways is dramatically under-funded. With over
90% of the population living within two miles of a waterway, many more
people would take up water sports if accessibility and facilities were
improved.
"...
there should be a public right of access along our
inland waters.. so we can all enjoy our natural heritage...rights
with responsibilities..."
