The water levels have come down, and we have now been able to open Newark Flood Gates.

Boaters can travel along the navigation, but are asked to proceed with care.

Description

Due to the rising river level, Newark flood gates have been closed until further notice. We will continue to monitor the situation.

In the meantime, boaters are asked not to travel along the navigation until informed otherwise.

We apologise for any inconvenience caused.
