Keadby Rail Drawbridge is still closed and the high temperatures are affecting the operating mechanisms. The bridge can operate once the temperature has dropped below 26 degrees and has stayed below for 12 hours. We will wait for an update from Network Rail once this condition has been reached and the bridge is safe to operate we will then update the notice to advise boaters.
