Description

Original 28 July 2025, 3:45pm

Water levels on the Rochdale Canal have improved to a level that we are able to allow boat movement from Lock 9 (Hebden Bridge) to Lock 19 (Todmorden) on weekends. This section will be opened at 9am on Fridays and close on Mondays at 3pm until further notice.

Between these times, the gates will be padlocked up again to allow the canal to recharge water levels in the intervening period.
