Please be advised that contractor OCU Group will be reinforcing and replacing overhead lines at Wilton Water and across the canal on behalf of Scottish and Southern Electricity Networks.

Please approach with caution and follow any signs or instructions from the contractor.

The towpath and navigation will remain open as the works will stop to let people and boating customers through.

The works will largely be overnight from 8pm to 5am due to the railway closure required but please note the 8pm start.
