The towpath of a canal which suffered a catastrophic breach, flooding properties and closing a road for week, has been re-opened to the public.
It means walkers, cyclists and anglers can use the full 35 mile stretch of the Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal.
Eight people were rescued and the A4077 between Crickhowell and Gilwern was closed for a week after the 200-year-old canal breached on 16 October 2007. |
