Description
Please be advised that Third party contractors will be onsite between Bridge 127, Sealand Road and Lock 3 River Dee Lock on the Shropshire Union Canal, Dee branch Chester to remove the additional flood defence stop-planks.
The Third Party Contractors working for the Environment Agency will be removing the remaining planks below lock 3 of the Dee Branch to provide adequate water depth for craft, this will be done in the evenings to reduce disruption.
Although the towpath will remain open, we politely ask customers to approach the area with caution, take note of any signage and listen to any advice that may be given by the contractors.
