Description

A navigation stoppage is required to allow HS2 to construct a new viaduct over the canal.

The Birmingham and Warwick Junction Canal will be infilled between 6th November 2023 and 15th March 2024 including over the Christmas period.

Updates

We are pleased to advise these works can now be done as a restriction; therefore, we no longer need to do a full navigational closure.

HS2 have been working with their contractors to devise a method of work utilising a combination of restrictions.

Traffic lights will be used to control the boat traffic and a temporary pontoon will be in place to accommodate towpath users.

Please navigate with care and follow advice from contractors on site and expect short delays of up to 30 mins.
