Our maintenance crew have been unable to clear this obstruction and consequently we now need divers to visit the site.

The specialist team will be attending on Tuesday 7th August so unfortunately this restriction will be valid until at least then.

We will update you as soon as further information has become available.

Please accept our apologises for the inconvenience.

Description

Please be advised that one of the gates at Bevere lock is inoperable because of an obstruction under the gate.

Only one gate is operating therefore anything over 10ft beam is unable to pass through.

Please approach with caution and thank you for your patience whilst we resolve this issue. A maintenance crew is on its way to attend to the matter.
