Third-party contractors on Behalf of Deeley Homes are to undertake canal wall repairs following the demolition of the old Britannia Warehouse.

A fabric dam will be installed in the canal to facilitate the works. The works will be undertaken in two phases (70m sections) to minimise disruption to canal users.

One to two visitor mooring spots next to Coleshill Road Bridge 41 may need to be suspended for a period of three to four weeks.

Please adhere to signage on site and pass the dam with care, we apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.
