Description

Original 8 May 2026, 1:45pm

Navigation will be closed from Monday, 11 May 8am until Wednesday, 20 May 4pm, due to a damaged tail gate cill between Lock 59 and Lock 64 on Leeds & Liverpool Canal. This damage is preventing the lock from sealing, resulting in the lock being filled and operated safely.

A further update will be provided on or before Wednesday, 20 May.
