Description

Original 29 October 2026, 12:57pm

Contractor Neom working on behalf of WSP will be working on the canal carrying out bridge inspection works from a pontoon.

To assist with the inspection there will be divers in the water (Contractor P&M Diving Services Ltd).

Please approach with caution.

Boating customers can continue to navigate through the site, however there may be a short delay while the contractor temporarily moves the pontoon and the diver exits the water safely.

The navigation and towpath will remain open.

We thank you for your patience and cooperation.
