Currently the weir poses a barrier to upstream fish migration particularly to smaller fish. The ramp in the centre of the weir will create an attractive flow of water and will reduce the need for migrating fish to leap out of the water to get over the weir. Healthy Rivers will also install eel mats on a wing wall beside the weir to improve access upstream for elvers.
