Third‑party contractors will be undertaking demolition works on the offside between Asylum Bridge and Western Road Bridge. To facilitate the works, a pontoon will be installed within the canal, which will partially restrict the channel width. The canal will remain open throughout the works. Signs will be installed on site to warn approaching boaters.

Please proceed with caution when navigating through this section and follow all on‑site signage and instructions.
