Please be advised that third-party contractors will be installing an anti-climb device on a pipeline spanning the canal adjacent to Bridge 9 (Bullock Lane Bridge).

To facilitate the works, a scaffold tower will be positioned on the towpath. The towpath will remain open throughout the works, with banksmen and signage in place to manage pedestrian traffic. The scaffold tower will be repositioned as required to allow the safe passage of towpath users. The canal will remain open to navigation as normal.
