Please be advised our local team are currently awaiting delivery of a replacement footbridge for Lock 43 on the Leeds & Liverpool Canal.

Installation has been scheduled for Thursday 17 November, until then navigation through the Greenberfield lock flight remains restricted to narrowboat use only, as safe access to both lock gates has been prevented.

A further update will be provided Friday 18 November.

Description

Please be advised navigation is restricted to narrowboat access only, at Lock 43 Greenberfield Lock Flight, on the Leeds & Liverpool Canal.

This restriction is due to a structural failure to the footbridge which is preventing safe access to both lock gates across the lock.

Our local teams are currently manufacturing a replacement footbridge off site in our workshop and planning installation methods.

A further update will be provided on 4th November.
