Description

Original 9 October 2025, 10:49am

Our contractors are currently working to remove a large fallen tree located between Bridge 177 and Bridge 177A.

While the majority of the tree has now been cleared, a portion of the trunk still extends over halfway into the navigation.

For safety reasons, the navigation will remain closed until this remaining section has been cut back or fully removed.

We will provide further updates as soon as we receive more information from the contractors.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.
