Description

Original 29 October 2026, 5:07pm

Navigation is currently closed at Prestolee Road Bridge on the Manchester Canal due to a fallen tree.

Our local team are currently dealing with a high volume of fallen trees following Storm Boelo, which has resulted in a delay in their attendance at the site.

An update will be provided on or before Monday, 2 November.
