Scotland is covered by IWA Lancs & Cumbria Branch. IWA also actively lobbies to ensure parts of the Lowland Canals stay open as part of Scottish Waterways for All.
150 miles of canal in Scotland are managed by Scottish Canals. The Forth & Clyde and Union canals (the Lowland Canals) were restored as a Millennium project and reopened in 2001. The Crinan Canal and the Caledonian Canal have remained navigable as coast to coast routes, while the Monkland Canal is currently derelict.
The latest HS2 Phase 2b Western Leg Design Refinement proposals affect the Ashton Canal and Rochdale Canal in Manchester.
