The works at Stenson Lock have been completed.

Our operational team have been back on site all day and the lock is now operational again. 

Boaters are asked to proceed with care when using the lock, as repair works are still required.  

Our local team will be back on site next week to continue with the required works and we will keep updating the website. 

Description

Our operational team have been on site at Stenson Lock today, carrying out essential repairs to deal with the current issues we have been experiencing with the lock gates leaking water.

They were unable to complete the job today, and have been taken onto another urgent job elsewhere on the network tomorrow.

They will be back at Stenson Lock on Friday and aim to have it working again for the weekend.

Until these works are completed, the lock is now currently out of action.  We apologise for the inconvenience this may cause, and appreciate your patience during this time.
