Updates

26 October 2026 at 16:10

The Towpath is currently closed between Bridge 39 and Bridge 40 the Leeds & Liverpool Canal due to a fallen tree.

Our contractors are currently dealing with a high volume of fallen trees following Storm Beolo, which has resulted in a delay in their attendance at the site.

A further update will be provided on or before Friday, 30 October.
