Contractors will be working from a pontoon and scaffold in the waterway while undertaking a bridge inspection on behalf of Network Rail. This work is in addition to cabling works already in progress on the towpath.

The pontoon will be moved to allow boaters to pass, but boaters may be asked to wait until a task is completed before the pontoon can move.
