We are sorry to advise that an extension is required to this stoppage. The reason for the extension is due to the delay in lock gate manufacturing caused by the essential repairs at our Bradley workshop.

The revised end date for this stoppage will now be 17th March 2023. This allows time so that our teams can make the top end gate, it to be delivered and fitted.

Please note that there will be an opportunity for boaters to pass from 4pm on 24/02/2023 until 10am 02/03/2023. When passing, please be aware that there will be some materials fenced off on the lock side.

We apologise for the inconvenience this causes our boating customers.

Description

A stoppage is required to replace the top & bottom gates.
