Following additional control measures and ongoing monitoring we are now in a position to allow unrestricted use of Lock 10.  Therefore Napton Locks are now fully open without restriction.

We will however continually review the situation and should the need arise we may need to reintroduce a restriction pending the permanent repairs this winter.

We would like to ask that all boats take particular care in this area to avoid impact with the approach walls.
