![Droitwich Barge Canal near Hawford, Worcestershire. This is the canal looking towards Droitwich from beneath Bridge No 2, which carries the A449 dual carriageway. The restored Droitwich Barge Canal re-opened to boats on 11 September 2010. The linked Droitwich Junction Canal up to Hanbury was further delayed until 1 July 2011.[[[1913381]]] by Roger D Kidd – 23 June 2013](https://s2.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/03/82/77/3827718_4152c6ba_120x120.jpg)
![Droitwich Barge Canal - entrance to the tunnel under the A449 road. The canal is now in water here, and it is possible to walk through the tunnel on the towpath. The road crossing is regarded as being canal bridge number 2; hence the number above the tunnel. Bridge number 1 is the bridge at lock no. 2 (formerly known as 7), which is the other side of the tunnel and towards the River Severn.[[1913405]].[[1913381]]. by P L Chadwick – 14 June 2010](https://s3.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/01/91/33/1913351_fe35e6c4_120x120.jpg)

![The Droitwich Barge Canal approaching the A449. Compare this with [[753079]]. The line of trees on the right still marks the line of the weed choked canal. The metal fence is over the portal of the new tunnel under the A449. The new cut is between the portal and a bund in front of the weeds. A little water can be seen through the railings. I understand that the Barge Canal from the Severn to Droitwich is to be full navigable before the Junction Canal and that this may happen during the Winter of 2009/10. The lock are all just about done and the major remaining job is to complete dredging all the pounds. Some dredging of the section between Droitwich and lock No. 1 has been undertaken but I haven't photographed it. by Chris Allen – 10 October 2009](https://s3.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/01/52/91/1529111_b89c3cdc_120x120.jpg)
![Droitwich Barge Canal - inside the tunnel under the A449 road. The tunnel was a major engineering work, which went on for many months, and must have cost a great amount of money. Walkers can use the towpath through the tunnel to get under the A449. It is certainly much safer than attempting to dodge road traffic on the surface. Walking through the tunnel is a decidedly eerie experience. Not only is it fairly long and dark, but the surface of the walkway appears to be made of metal. As you walk on it, there is a clanging sound. It is easy to imagine there is someone following behind you, fortunately at about 7.30 a.m. in the morning there wasn't![[1913405]]. by P L Chadwick – 14 June 2010](https://s1.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/01/91/33/1913381_9b287608_120x120.jpg)
