Following the structural repairs and track renewal at Keadby drawbridge, Network Rail have encountered an unforeseen issue during the recommission phase of the bridge movement mechanism. This issue prevents the bridge from moving across the canal which prevents any passage of canal traffic. They are currently working towards a solution to complete the commissioning phase and return the canal to operational use. Current estimates suggest that the stoppage may need to be extended to 20 May, however we are in discussions with Network Rail to minimise this and will update this notice once we have further information. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.

There will now be an extended stoppage whilst we agree interim arrangements and dates with Network Rail's engineers. This stoppage will be updated no later than 29 March 2024.
