TOWPATH CLOSURE (until 5pm Monday 17 April 2023)
Update on 06/04/2023:
We have agreed with our contractors that the towpath will need to remain closed next week to allow for repairs, as well as to make the wall re-building easier.
We are now aiming to open the towpath by Monday 17th April. Thank you for your patience.
Original message:
The debris from the large factory fire opposite Minerva Wharf has now been cleared from the towpath and navigation, and it’s possible for boats to pass through this area. We’re now agreeing with the third party responsible to repair damange to the towpath, but until the potholes and gaps in the wall are fillled, the towpath will have to remain closed.
We expect to be able to update you very soon, certainly by next Wednesday 4th April. Thank you for continuing to bear with us while the clean up is completed.
