We, the undersigned request that the council or the relevant authorities impose a speed limit of 10 mph on all private usage of the River Lune with the intent of reducing noise pollution from the increasing number of jetskis using the river, and also to protect the wildlife of the river, the salt marsh and the surrounding area from the disruption caused by the sometimes reckless usage of these obtrusive machines.
I have been reviewing the recent feedback regarding the increased noise levels and the potential impact on our local salt marsh ecosystem. These accounts highlight the urgent need for a regulatory change to preserve the tranquility of the River Lune. I am currently preparing a formal inquiry to local officials based on the concerns documented here.

The peace of the River Lune on this lovely summer’s day is ruined by a selfish few on very noisy jet skis. The noise and wash must be extremely frightening for the local wildlife.

THE NOISE IS UNBEARABLE. Not to mention the birds and other wildlife that get scared off by these people. Please sort this out.

About time. You cant even sit by the bank anymore without some idiot on a jetski buzzing past at full speed. Ruins the whole afternoon.

Needs a 10mph limit for sure. Too dangerous for the kids swimming and the rowers
