Please be advised that Wycliffe Watermen have organised a rowing event that will take place between Patch Bridge 5 and Junction Bridge 10 on Saturday 3rd February 2024

The canal will remain open but there may be slight delays.

During racing, we require Splatt and Cambridge bridges to be open for about 1 hour as the crews race through. There are 2 divisions at 11am and 2pm.

There will be a marshal on each bridge who will liaise with the Bridgeman for the specific times that the bridges need to be open.

The divisions start within 30 minutes of the stated time

Please also be aware that the moorings between Sandfield Bridge and Saul Junction will be closed from Thursday 1 February (9am) until Monday 5 February (12 noon) as part of this event.

Please proceed with care and listen to the advice of the bridge keepers and event stewards.
