Third-party contractors will be undertaking a bathymetric survey of the canal, along with further survey works on the canal banks east of Bridge 77 (Calf Heath Bridge).

The canal and towpath will remain open. However, to facilitate the works, a pontoon will be used in the canal.

The pontoon will be removed as required to allow the safe passage of traffic.

Signs and banksmen will be present throughout the works.
