Navigation is closed between Lock 63 and Lock 65 on the Trent & Mersey Canal due to a leak on the towpath side of Lock 63, caused by damage to the cill, which has resulted in low water levels.
Our team have successfully completed repairs to the offside lock and have now installed stop planks to enable repairs to be carried out on the towpath side. At the same time, we are replenishing water levels to ensure they return to a safe level for navigation.
We will continue to monitor the situation closely and work to restore normal navigation as soon as possible.
A further update will be provided on Friday 24 July.
