UKPN have instructed a Third Party to undertake a survey through service area within Salmon Lane bridge. A portable scaffold is required to be used which will be blocking the Towpath under the bridge. The Temporary Towpath closure will only be required during the hours of 9am-4pm. Traffic/ Person Marshalls will be allocated to each end of the closure. Tower Hamlets Highways have been notified of the diversion and closure signage and will require Highways minor permitting. One day is required, I have added an additional 1 day for contingency only.
