All lock gates have been cleared of silt and are now available for normal navigation including wide beams.
Ledgard Lock gates are closed but the lock is available for navigation.
Description
Siltation caused by recent high river levels is presently restricting gate operation at Ledgard Lock and Greenwood Flood Gates. Passage at these locks is possible for narrow beam craft 2.13m (7ft) only.
Skippers of all craft should proceed with caution. Canal & River Trust staff are on site clearing the silt to provide passage for full size craft.
