Limehouse Lock Closure Notice
Please be advised that Limehouse Lock will be closed to all passages from Monday 10th August to Thursday 13th August, reopening on Friday 14th August.
This temporary closure is necessary to allow contractors to carry out essential repairs to the damaged walkway on the Inner Lock Gates as part of planned maintenance works.
During this period, Limehouse Lock bookings will not be available, so we kindly ask that you use an alternative route where possible.
We appreciate your patience, understanding and cooperation while these important works are completed.
