Third-party contractors will be onsite at Bridge 136A, Picton Lane New Bridge on the Shropshire Union Canal to carry out a detailed inspection.

This inspection will be taking place between Thursday 6 November from 8am till 5pm.

To be able to inspect the bridge, a pontoon and scaffolding tower will be in place, and we request all customers to approach the area with caution and be prepared to stop to allow the pontoon and equipment to be moved out the way for safe passage.

We anticipate a wait of no longer than 20 minutes.

Please listen to any advice that may be given onsite.
