We would like to update our customers regarding ongoing works at Bridge 37, Hazelhurst.

There have been several challenges which have resulted in the requirement to extend this towpath closure by 2 weeks, taking the end date to Thursday 13th July.

We have also had to extend the navigation closure until Thursday 6th April. After this, a navigation restriction will be in place. Further information for this can be found here:
