| Image Description: | As you can see this newly installed bridge, near to the new St Helens Chamber building crosses just above above the surface of the water making passage along the canal impossible. It was built by developers Langtree to create a walkway to the Saints rugby league club's new stadium. At present, boats cannot use the town centre stretch of the canal because of various obstructions but the Sankey Canal Restoration Society hope restoration work will soon make the canal navigable, at which time the bridge may be raised. Local councillors have criticised the installation and the apparent lack of consultation with the local restoration society. |
