The project commences a ten-year programme to regenerate the historic Swansea Canal as a heritage destination and activity venue, led by Glandwr Cymru (Canal & River Trust Wales).
Specialist contractors will undertake silt removal within the channel, and historic structures will be renovated by volunteers following heritage skills training.
A future phase will develop multi-user activities including canoeing, trip boat, angling and trail boats, and high-quality interpretation will raise the profile of rural wards as a prime tourist destination.
