Description

We will be dropping the pound level between Semington Lock 15 and Harris Lock 16 on the morning of Wednesday 23 May.

We need to do this so that our engineers are able to safely survey the lock structure.  The inspection should not take more than the morning to complete and we envisage that normal water level in this pound will be restored by mid-day. 

Navigation will be restricted during the lock survey and all vessels are kindly requested not to moor in the pound between Lock 15 and Lock 16 on the day of the inspection.
