Original 05/06/2025 10:52

Please be advised that Hillmorton Lock 2 will be temporarily closed on Thursday 19th June, between 10:00 AM and 2:00 PM.

This closure is necessary to allow for the replacement of the top end walk board. The works will involve the installation of stop planks and dewatering to safely access and remove the bolts securing the board.

Navigation will remain open during this period, as Lock 3 will continue to be operational and available for use.
