Two-thirds of a mile of towpath between Hapton and Shuttleworth Hall are having the pathway widened and finished with a waterproof stoned surface. This will improve safety and appeal to walkers and cyclists.
The £27,000 work is being funded by Lancashire Environmental Fund and Lancashire County Council.
The towpath work will add the finishing touches to a major repair programme along this stretch that has included strengthened the embankment.
Boaters have not been left out, as the works have included vegetation clearance and new mooring bollards.
