Water levels have risen and are continuing to increase gradually.
Our engineer visited the site today to plan the next steps for a permanent repair to the lock.

Our operative has assessed the damage to the lock. They have ashed the gates which is helping to form a seal so water levels can recover.
This lock cannot be used until the damage to the gate has been fixed.
Until water levels have recovered and the damage has been repaired, there is a stoppage at this lock.
