The completion of the towpath improvement works at Devizes between Prison Bridge and Devizes Town Bridge has been slightly delayed. We had hoped to be able to re-open the towpath on Friday 13th May, but due to the requirement to undertake repairs to the canal bank between Lock 49-50, the works are now scheduled to be completed and the towpath re-opened on Friday 27th May. The canal itself will continue to remain open for boating customers.
