Please be advised that a navigation restriction is required to allow 3rd party contractors to cut back problematic offside vegetation between Bridge 231A and Bridge 238.

Cruisers may have to wait for periods up to 4 hours to allow for contractors to work effectively on OSV.

Please plan your journeys accordingly.
