Description

Original 6 July 2026, 4:54pm

A navigation closure is in place as a fallen tree has fallen across the navigation, blocking the majority of the width of the canal, there could be more branches under the water line. We have contractors attending to the tree in the next 48 hours and we will update the notice as soon as the tree is removed from the navigation.
