The recent severe weather conditions have caused unavoidable delays to the canal bed re-lining works at Minworth Locks. 

Our teams are doing all they can to minimise the resulting effect on this closure but, unfortunately, we will not be in a position to re-open the navigation until 8am on Tuesday, 20th March.

Description

Embankment and Canal Leakage repairs.

Unfortunately there is no passage window or diversion due to the dewatering of the whole section.
