Update 27 March 2026, 8:42am

We have not yet managed to clear the tree from the navigation and towpath. Due to the recent stormy weather we have experienced, we have several trees down across the network. We are working to clear these as quickly as possible and appreciate your patience during this time.

We will update this notice as soon as we have further information.
