Update on 26/02/2021:
The canal has been dewatered between Ivy House Road Lift Bridge and Bucknall Road bridge for investigation purposes. An inspection carried out on the 22nd February indicated that works were required to be undertaken in the bed of the canal before it can be refilled and fully reopened to boat traffic. Works will commence immediately, so closures of the canal and towpath will remain in place for the safety of the public and we intend to reopen the canal and towpath on the 29th March 2021 at 6pm.
Update on 18/02/2021:
Please be advised the towpath is only closed between Bridge 11 Ivyhouse Road Lift Bridge and Bridge 13 Cromer Road.
The navigation is closed from Bridge 1, Etruria Footbridge to Bridge 13 Cromer Road.
