Hi All,
Saw this earlier on Warrington Worldwide, online local mag:
http://www.warrington-worldwide.co.uk/2018/01/04/six-month-closure-on-trans-pennine-trail/
Trail will close to bikes from 11th Jan for 6 months, possibly intermittently at the Ferry pub due to subsidence, though it doesn't make much sense as it'll be open to walkers round the front of the pub. Have contacted Sustrans for confirmation, awaiting reply. The suggested detour in the article is a long way round, and makes no sense at all as it says go from Sankey Bridges to the edge of Widnes on-road. Presumably there would still be a route past the front of the pub accessible by bike hence I don't quite get it. If not there should still be a route along the other side of the canal/railway between the two nearest canal bridges involving a very slight detour.
Anyone with any info? Recent experience suggests contact with Warrington BC would take a long time to get any details.
Will be going past tomorrow and will post an update if there's anything.
