Description

Original 30 May 2026, 11:18am

Due to a fallen willow tree in the canal the navigation is closed between Bridge 236A, Railway and Bridge 238, St Edwards Lift Bridge. Contractors will be out on site to remove the tree when possible. The towpath remains unaffected by this. Apologies for any inconvenience.
