Our engineers have visited the site and assessed that it is safe to reopen the canal, as the damage to the bridge is located well away from the bridge arch. The towpath will remain closed until further assessment is carried out tomorrow, as water is still running from the burst pipe onto the towpath. We will provide a further update as soon as possible.
