Description

Original 16 January 2026, 3:54pm

As part of the National Underwater Bridge Inspection Project (P/12566), we will be carrying out in-water inspections of bridges and require a restriction notice to be put in place for the below bridges / navigations.   Boating customers may be asked to wait for up to 30 minutes whilst sections of inspections are completed, and any safety equipment/boats moved. Towpath customers will be managed past any equipment placed on, or close to, towpaths.   Each inspection is expected to take a few hours. However, the restriction notice is required for the whole day (duration of one day only), 8:00am to 5:00pm. No evening works to take place.   ///result.exists.note
