| Description: | CINETOPICALITIES IN BRIEF (NO. 88) Dredger scoops silt in Cape Town bay. At Capetown, South Africa, we see excavation work taking place before the construction of a new £6 million harbour. Huge dredgers scoop silt from the bottom of the bay which is transferred to barges and dumped in areas that won't affect the building or passing ships. | |
