Please note the revised start date for this stoppage.

We have reviewed the methodology and timings of the culvert and washwall repairs at Hurdsfield. As a result, we are able to keep the navigation open until 6th January to allow people more time to complete their Christmas holiday cruising. The end date of the closure is not affected.

Description

A closure is required to carry out significant culvert and washwall repairs.
