Fallen Tree Obstructing Lock 8 Aylesbury Arm

Please be advised that we have had to implement a navigation closure due to a fallen tree currently obstructing Lock 8 on the Aylesbury Arm.

We have instructed our contractors to attend and safely remove the fallen tree as soon as possible.

We will provide a further update to this notice as soon as we have more information.

We appreciate your patience and understanding whilst we await for this tree to be cleared by our contractors.
