Our construction team has now completed all stoppage related works at Dimmingsdale Lock, allowing the navigation to be opened a few days earlier than planned.  Passage through the lock will be available from 8am on Wednesday 12th December.

Description

Replace top and bottom gates.

Carry out repairs to the brickwork where required and improvements to the lock ladder.

Following customer requests, we have made arrangements to carry out this work before Christmas, rather than after, as previously advertised.
