The towpath remains closed due to a structural failure of the retaining wall, which continues to pose a danger to the public.

Network Rail is aware of the issue and is currently assessing the situation. Until the area is deemed safe, the towpath will remain inaccessible.

We appreciate your patience and will provide further updates as more information becomes available.
