Respondent: Lichfield & Hatherton Canals Restoration Trust

We accept that the WMI project now has support from Central Government and will go ahead. We welcome the land around it will be Green Belt and the protection of the corridor around the Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal to which the Hatherton Canal connects. We support the creation of a direct vehicular link from the M6 into the WMI as an opportunity to create a culvert under the M6 for the Hatherton Canal. We are seeking to engage with National Highways regarding creation of the culvert needed under the M6 for the Hatherton Canal and Heritage Towpath Trail
