Description

Original 23 April 2026, 10:12am

Contractors working on behalf of High Speed 2 Limited are constructing a new viaduct over the Oxford Canal. Works taking place alongside the canal will require materials to be lifted over the canal during the day, and excavators will be operating close to the canal edge.

During these activities, craft using the Oxford Canal at this location may be instructed by the contractor to stop and wait for up to 30 minutes while the site is made safe to pass. Please pass the location with caution.
