The water levels have now started to come down between Torksey Lock and Boston Lock. Boaters can now travel along these navigations, but please do so with extreme care, especially in the Lincoln area as there is still quite a fast flow.

Description

Due to the increase in water levels, due to the recent floods, we are strongly advising boaters not to travel along the Fossdyke and Witham at this moment in time. 

We feel it is not currently safe to be travelling in these waters.
