Towpath between visitor car park (Bridge 30W) and Pontcysylte Aqueduct, Trevor Basin

The towpath will be closed from visitor car park to Pontcysyllte Aqueduct whilst we undertake surface dressing works to the previously completed tarmac surfacing, which was unfortunately delayed by the coronavirus pandemic. All works have been carefully considered before returning to site and will be done in line with social distancing rules and as per current Government guidance. Towpath works at this location is funded by the Rural Development Community Fund in Wales to enhance the access route for visitors to Pontcysyllte Aqueduct. We apologise for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience.

From Wednesday 13 May our canals and rivers are open for navigation. Our towpaths are also open for exercise or journeys to undertake essential work, but please try to avoid any stretches with boats moored against the towpath. Strictly observe social distancing at all times, following the latest advice from the government. Before you go by boat, bike or boot, remember to check your route.
