Description

Due to a pump breakdown we are needing to manage water resources, a navigation restriction will be in place along the Marsworth flight between lock 39 to Lock 45.

The navigation will be open from 9am to 4pm, with last entry into flight 2:30pm.

The temporary pumping system planned for installation at Tringford is expected to be operational before the New Year.

 Reservoir levels remain low and the refill has been minimal due to lack of rain.

 The current restrictions are to remain unchanged at this time

Updates to be provided as work progresses on temporary pumping installation and the reservoirs refilling.

Towpath will remain open
