This week sees a major milestone completed for Eadon in delivering the design and manufacturing drawings for a new set of lock gates at Gairlochy on the Caledonian Canal, which stretches from Fort William in the west to Inverness in the east of Scotland.

The work is part of a huge renovation project by Scottish Canals to replace aging lock gates on both the Caledonian and Crinan canals. Eadon are delighted to have won the contract, working with Amco Giffen to supply mitre gate designs and fabrication drawings for one set of gates at Gairlochy and sixteen pairs of gates on the Crinan canal.
