A project to allow eels and other fish to safely bypass a man-made weir has been completed.

The concrete weir, created by Essex and Suffolk Water in the River Blackwater, near Maldon, Essex, was preventing fish from completing their natural migration upstream.

The route is particularly important for eels, which travel from the Sargasso Sea in the North Atlantic.
