Description

There will be a navigation restriction in place for Leeds Bridge in order to facilitate AE Yates undertaking paint testing on a local authority bridge.

They will be cleaning and painting a section of the bridge using a 6m x 6m pontoon to the edge of the navigation.

Boaters and other navigation traffic may be affected for up to 20 minutes to enable the pontoon to move out of the way. Please slow down on approaching the bridge.
