Neath & Tennant Canals

To date, 11 locks and long stretches of the Neath Canal, including the reconstructed Ynysbwllog Aqueduct over the River Neath, have been returned to navigation by the Neath & Tennant Canals Trust, in conjunction with the canal-owner and the local authority. Against a background of long-standing aspiration to connect the two canals with the Swansea Canal via the SA1 Development of the Prince of Wales Dock and the River Tawe, a Swansea Bay Inland Waterway Partnership has been formed to promote the initiative. The repair/restoration of the Aberdulais Aqueduct, a Grade II*-listed structure, has become a matter of urgency given the significant damage sustained during recent storms.
