The navigation has been partially reopened and this notice has been changed to a Navigation Restriction.

We are arranging some additional equipment to be brought to site to lift out the remaining section of tree and root ball.

Narrow beam boats will be able to pass. Wide beam vessels will need to pass with extreme caution. Please slow to tick over when passing the remaining section of tree.
