Description

Original 11 June 2026, 4:17pm

Please could boaters be aware that we will be dropping the length above the lock at Pollington on 25th June, for one day. The drop will be around 200mm.

This drop in the water level is to allow for the broken bracket to be removed, a new on fabricated and then installed.

The broken clevis bracket controls the level so the temporary level would need to be dropped further up-stream, potentially up to Ferrybridge.
