Hi, does anyone have up to date info re the reopening of Vicars Hall Bridge on the Bridgewater? I think it was due to reopen today'?

Came through yesterday. Still lots to do but they let you through as and when so expect a delay. It won't get you far because the Leigh Branch and the L&L are short of water. I'm near Wigan and am high and dry. They have padlocked the Leigh Branch locks and I'm waiting to move from below lock number two.

How did you get on today? Just interested because I'm coming through Wigan next week.

I got going the next day but it was very low. Lockie said problems as far as Burnley due to a big leak at Blackburn and they may close for some time to do repairs.
