Description

Please be advised that Sharpness Port will be unavailable between the hours of 08:00 and 20:00, on these dates. This is so that we can carry out essential repairs to the anchors on the middle gates.

By arrangement, leisure craft will be able to use the lock on 21st and 22nd April from 1 hour before to 1 hour after high water, but it is essential that customers request this 24 hours in advance as these movements will require special preparations to be made around the works. Please contact the Pier Head on 01453 511968 to request your passage.

The lock will be available on the tides outside of these hours as usual for shipping.

We understand that these works may impact customers' plans and appreciate your patience whilst we carry out these vital repairs.”
