Please be advised that river levels have fallen sufficiently to allow safe navigation from Lincomb Lock down to Diglis lock.

Navigation through the middle of the two arches of Worcester Bridge (No. 23) is closed to navigation due to a build-up of floating debris. The debris is due to be cleared by the end of today.

The navigation South of Diglis Lock and Gloucester Lock remains closed, due to continued high water levels. However, these continue to fall.

Please take extra care when navigating the river and be aware of the possibility of floating debris.

Description

Please be advised that due to rising water levels on the River Severn we are closing the navigation from Gloucester Lock to Lincomb Lock.

We will advise as soon as the river conditions improve to allow safe navigation.

We are sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.
