Description

Original 4 July 2025, 5:25pm

We have been advised by the Python Crew that there is an underwater obstruction (large brick pillar) in the navigable channel under Bridge 46 at ///struts.flopping.outlined

Local teams have been made aware. The water levels are currently sufficient to pass over the obstruction, but please proceed with caution in this area should the water levels drop.

We will update this notice when the debris has been removed.
