Third-party contractors working at the West Midlands Interchange scheme are undertaking vegetation clearance at the back of the towpath to facilitate towpath resurfacing works to be carried out later in the year.
The towpath will remain open throughout the works. Signage and banksmen will be present to manage traffic. The canal will remain open as usual.
Please follow signs and instructions given by third-party contractors.
