Eric Arthur Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 Is that the spider bridge under the Wicker Arches? The metal floor and rails kept getting pinched so they replaced it with plastic boards. Have they gone now as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Janus Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 There are quite a few point along the canal where you can get on/off the canal path. It`s just a matter of going a bit further along the road. I cannot comment on why the section is closed-maybe as Eric says. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annie Bynnol Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Halfpenny Bridge - Jordan Bridge Due to works being carried out on the Fitzwilliam Bridge scheme by Rotherham Council. The towpath will be closed until September 2015, however there are signed diversion routes in place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
