Following our recent update regarding the stoppage at Lock 16, we sincerely apologise for the late notice of the update and for the change to the start date of the closure.
We are having to delay the start by two weeks to give us more time to finalise the detailed design which, unfortunately, has taken longer than expected. We will be increasing resource on site to ensure the completion date remains the same.
Again, we do apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.
