Description

Original 11 September 2026, 2:24pm

The navigation is currently closed between Long Eaton Lock 61 and Dockholme Lock 62 due to low water levels.

Passage through the locks is not possible while the team carries out water control. It may take a few days for the levels to come back up.

We will update this notice once we have further information.
