Croxton re-opens

The Canal and River Trust has announced that repair work at Croxton Embankment on the Trent and Mersey Canal has been completed five weeks ahead of schedule and the 12 miles of canal between Middlewich and Dutton has been re-opened to navigation.

This affects part of the Cheshire Ring. However, the Trent and Mersey Canal remains shut at Dutton Hollow, south of Preston Brook Tunnel, where the more serious breach will take much longer to repair.
