Navigation and Towpath Obstruction A large tree has fallen at Bridge 55 (London Lane) on the Worcester & Birmingham Canal, causing a complete obstruction to navigation and blocking the towpath. We've raised this with our contractors and are working closely with them to resolve the issue as quickly as possible. Storm Amy has impacted a number of our waterways, resulting in a high volume of incidents involving fallen trees. Our teams are prioritising safety and working hard to clear obstructions and reopen affected routes. We appreciate your patience and understanding while we respond to this and other urgent cases.
