Our local team will be onsite at Lock 54 on the Trent and Mersey Canal to carry out routine clearance of vegetation to clear the bywash.

Whilst navigation will remain open, there may be short delays, we would ask all customers to approach the area with caution and to listen to any advice that may be given onsite. 

An update will be provided on or before Tuesday 17 March.
