The lock is now available for use again, however it will take longer to operate as only one paddle is now working.

Description

The top ground paddle has failed and it is not possible to fill the lock. The reactive team are on their way to attempt to repair, but currently it is not possible to pass through the lock.

We will update further as soon as we have more information.
