Description

Original 9 June 2026, 10:22am

Tree limbs are blocking a large area of the towpath making it difficult to pass. Contractors will be attending to cut back the vegetation making the path passable. Please may towpath users listen to any instructions given by contractors and pause while works may need to be carried out from the towpath before passing is safe to do so. The location of the tree is ///cheat.pleasing.pronouns directly between the Bridge 5, Coopers House Bridge and Station Road Bridge. We will update the notice when the tree limbs have been cut back.
