Market Weighton Canal Trail

The Market Weighton Canal and River Foulness Action Plan was commissioned by Newport Parish Council on behalf of a wider steering group. The East and North Yorkshire Waterways Partnership provided the funding for this study.

The Market Weighton Canal and River Foulness Action Plan sets out a long term vision for the two waterways with defined practical actions. The emphasis is focused on creating new linkages with surrounding villages and visitor attractions and involving the local community.

Sustainability is at the core of the study together with the integration of economic, community and environmental issues, which are set within the scope of the waterways’ statutory flood management and land drainage functions.
