Due to unforeseen circumstances with the piling works, the dam along the canal wall will need to remain in place longer than first envisaged.

The new completion date is the 31st of March.

Description

Contractors will be installing a dam parallel to the canal wall so repairs to the wall can take place. The works will be undertaken in two 100m length phases to reduce the length of dam required.

The canal will remain open and boats will be managed through the work site although care should be taken.
