Description

Emergency Grouting works :  Works are required to seal a new water leak around the top end gate to prevent further damage through the forthcoming season.  To be able to protect the ground paddle and culvert during this work the forebay of the lock chamber will need to be drained.

The stoppage will be in place between 0730-1600hrs for each of the 3 days.  However, the navigation will be reopened outside of these times to allow the passage of boats.
