Unfortunately, we need to extend this stoppage until 1st April 2022. After the recent storms, there was a fallen tree at the works at Cross Oak. The tree was removed successfully. As work has continued, it has been highlighted that one of the tree limbs has punctured the culvert. This now needs to be repaired before any dewatered sections of the canal can be re-watered. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause you.
Description
A stoppage is required to replace stop plank groves and also set a cill on the canal bed to allow the planks to sit on top.
