Third-party contractors will be installing a Sky Network Chamber in the grass verge next to Gailey Marine L5 moorings water point.

An excavator will be used to undertake the works, with the contractor using the car park off Cottage Lane.

The towpath, water point and bin store will remain open throughout the works. Banksmen will be in place to manage the operations and towpath traffic, and works will be temporarily paused as required to allow for the safe passage of towpath users. Appropriate signage will also be installed on site.

Please follow all signage and any instructions provided by the third‑party contractors on site.
