Original 5 February 2026, 2:59pm
Due to rising water levels because of the coinciding Spring Tide and forthcoming rainfall, Doncaster Lock on the Sheffield and South Yorkshire Navigation and Don Doors on the New junction Canal are closed. The team will closely monitor the river levels and will check tomorrow morning. We will update the notice when water levels have returned to a navigable level.
