Please be advised that the Environment Agency, Highways Agency and ourselves will be conducting debris clearance at Worcester Bridge from 9am on Monday 11th Nov in order to clear the 4 blocked arches.
Navigation will be closed from Worcester Bridge to Diglis lock in anticipation of large amounts of debris moving down the river as a result of the clearance works. We will endeavour to remove as much material from the water as possible including clearing the plastic rubbish.
