The Third Party contractor has agreed to carry out works relating to the installation of the new bridge under local restrictions. There is no longer a requirement for the navigation to be closed and the stoppage is now cancelled. We apologise for any inconvenience this change to our stoppage programme might cause.
Installation of new pedestrian and cycle bridge.
Please be aware the end date of this closure is now earlier than originally stated by the Third Party contractors. They will also try to build in navigation windows into their programme wherever possible.
