Contractors working on behalf of High Speed 2 Limited will be installing monitoring equipment on three bridges in the area ahead of planned tunnelling works.

A small pontoon will be operating within the navigation beneath the bridges to facilitate the installation. Navigation will remain open, but short delays may be experienced while boats are passed safely through the works area.

Equipment may also be temporarily present on the towpath for short periods during the works.

Please take extra care when passing through the area and follow any instructions provided on site.
