Navigation is currently closed between Lock 1 to Lock 12 on the Bosley flight, Macclesfield Canal, this is due to paddle failure at Lock 11 preventing the lock from holding water.
Our teams are investigating the cause of the issue and planning the necessary repairs.
A further update will be provided on Wednesday 1st April.
