The recent freezing weather conditions have caused unavoidable delays to the embankment repair works between Bridges 29 and 30.
Our teams are doing all they can to minimise the resulting effect on this closure but, unfortunately, we will not be in a position to re-open the navigation until Friday 23rd March.
Description
Works to repair leakage through the embankment in order to improve water levels.
As there are other planned works in the immediate area, this work will be carried out simultaneously to take advantage of existing planned closures and minimise any additional disruption.
