The work was performed at the appropriate time of year to prevent damage to the course, and we were able to complete the project successfully and within the allotted time frame.

Challenges
One of the main challenges we faced during this project was the access for machinery on to the golf course. Our team had to navigate through the course while minimising any damage to the course’s grass and landscaping. Additionally, we had to work around the golfers, ensuring that our work did not interfere with their play.
Another challenge we faced was the unpredictable weather conditions in Dorset during the autumn months. We had to closely monitor the weather forecast to ensure that we could complete the work on schedule and without any interruptions.
Conclusion
Overall, this project was a success, and our team was able to clear the waterways on the golf course in a timely and efficient manner. By performing the work during the autumn months, we were able to minimise the impact on the course and maintain its playability for golfers. We are proud to have contributed to the maintenance of this beautiful golf course and look forward to working with the course management team in the future.
