The fencing by the towpath at the Boroughmuir High School site has been moved even further onto the path towards the metal chicane/cut through area now that work is presumably about to begin on the new 'park' area at that part of the site. I'm glad that I was leaving work early today so that it wasn't too busy when negotiating that section, although tomorrow morning is likely to be a complete nightmare...

I agree that this fence is making the towpath almost one-way-at-a-time. The fence has flexed on and off the path over the last few days. Someone is moving it. I'm genuinely not sure whether it's the contractors or a towpath user.
Just wait for the school to open, then we'll see how narrow the path really is!

@Chug I assume that it was the contractors who've moved the fence back off the path since yesterday afternoon when it was literally one-way beyond the metal chicane. They seemed to have done this so that they were able to dig up the ground right up to the edge of the towpath. This morning there were supports in place, protruding back into the dug out area, on which the fencing stood.

@gembo I was taken by surprise more than anything - apologies for not yet being at all proficient at spotting you back. I do remember reading your traffic comment...
