Grouting works at Lock 30, Wightwick Mill, have been successfully completed in a shorter timescale than originally anticipated.
The navigation has now been re-opened.
Description
Grouting works are to be undertaken within the lock.
This will require a pontoon to be fixed across the lock, in order to inject grout up the sides of the lock walls.
During this time it will not be possible for other craft to be within the lock.
