Re: Mon and Brec Canal restoration

LocalResident
I am more interested about how the canal will be reopened to boats where the roads have been built on top, but I guess that is straight forward engineering solutions, as opposed to the mine field of red tape involved with buying and selling land and property.


IIRC parts of the plan do involve a new route for the canal. I think I'm right in saying that the original route of the canal into Newport docks has been built over but that a new link to the river Usk is planned using existing natural waterways.

I think that is a later phase of the plan than the section currently out to tender - but it's all good stuff!
