| Starts at | Tinsley No.7/8 (Deep) Lock |
| Ends at | Tinsley No.7/8 (Deep) Lock |
The bottom gate of Tinsley No. 7/8 (Deep Lock) is blocked by an obstacle and will not close, therefore the Tinsley Lock flight is currently non-operational.
Plans are being made to get a workboat out to assess and clear the obstacle.
This notice will be updated on Friday the 19th of December.
