3rd party contractors will be undertaking remedial works and the instalment of anti climb deterrents to a UKPN crossing which spans the Lee Navigation.
To safely facilitate works the towpath will be half closed off with barriers to segregate towpath customers and the contractors working area. A mooring suspension below the crossing will be required for the full duration of the works.
Please follow towpath safety signage.
Moorings below the crossing will be suspended (10m either side) to safely facilitate the works.
