Please be advised that third-party contractors will be carrying out topographical surveys along the canal towpath between Bridge 11C and Bridge 19 on the Paddington Arm, Grand Union Canal.

The surveys will involve the use of a total station, which will be set up on established survey control points to record site features through distance and angle measurements. The recorded data will then be downloaded to the survey equipment controller for processing.

During these works, survey teams will be operating along the towpath. We kindly ask all towpath users to proceed with care when passing the surveyors and to follow any instructions provided by the team.

Please be assured that the towpath will remain open throughout the duration of the survey works. We appreciate your patience and cooperation while these important surveys are undertaken.
