Description
As part of the planned inspection of the tunnel a navigation restriction is required to allow for the inspection boat to transit slowly through the tunnel several times.
As such the navigation will be restricted between 10:00 and 14:00 with delays of up to 2 hours being possible.
Boaters are advised to arrive at the tunnel either before 09:30 or after 14:00 to avoid any delays.
Operational staff and volunteers will be on site to direct boats through the tunnel ahead of the inspection boat during the windows of opportunity.
Please proceed with care and follow advice on site.
