Calder & Hebble Navigation »

  1. Restriction: Wakefield Waterfront, near Wakefield Weir

    26 Nov 2008 until further notice

    Associated Regional Office: BW Yorkshire

    The new bridge will provide 3.66m headroom at normal river level; this will allow any craft to safely pass when the navigation is open, but will not be sufficient when the river is raised during floods.

    Craft are not permitted to moor under the bridge as river level rise in flood events may bring them into contact with the underside of the bridge deck.

    14 - 25 May 2012

    Delays of less than 20 minutes may be experienced due to an extensive inspection of the bridge from a pontoon.

    AMCO on behalf of Network Rail are carrying out a detailed inspection of the bridge from a pontoon. Delays of up to 20 minutes may occur as the pontoon is moved out of the way. British Waterways apologises for any delays.
