Have you seen the Channel 5 show, The Thames: Britain’s Great River with Tony Robinson? Now available on Channel 5’s online player, Episode three sees Tony looking at the way industry uses the Thames.

Tony spends some time on the Polla Rose, as it delivers 700 tonnes of limestone and sand to the CEMEX site at Fulham. There are some great shots of the site, and you can also hear more about the sustainability benefits of using marine vessels to transport goods over lorries – four million tonnes of freight travel by the Thames every year, the equivalent of 340,000 lorries.

Look out for CEMEX around the 5 minute, 35 second mark:
