Update 10 September 2026, 2:13pm
Sykehouse Road Bridge had become stuck in the raised position, preventing road traffic from passing. Our team has now lowered the bridge, allowing road traffic to pass. However, the pump required to raise the bridge has failed, and the bridge will therefore remain in the lowered position until the issue is resolved and is currently closed for passage for boaters
Our contractor is attending the site to investigate and carry out the necessary repairs.
This notice will be updated once the bridge is fully operational again. We apologise for any inconvenience caused and thank you for your patience and understanding.
