During the inspection we have discovered a leak and further works are required to locate the leak and repair it.   This means the waterpoints are still not operational.   We appreciate that this will be inconvenient for boating customers who need, or have planned, to use these waterpoints and we continue to work to fix this issue as quickly as we can.     We will update this notice by 27th May or sooner if we have further information.

Due to an issue with the water supply the three waterpoints at Foxton Basin aren't working.

We are working to fix this as soon as possible.

We will update this notice by Monday 12th May or sooner if we have more information.
