Update on 20/01/2025:

The original plan for this closure was to install a portadam within the canal to undertake the works.

Our Contractor has confirmed that the works can be completed without the need for a Portadam so a navigational closure is no longer required at this sluice.

Original message:

A stoppage is required due to localised dewatering of the canal to facilitate an underwater Inspection, desilting and refurbishment of the operational sluice.

A fabric dam will be placed around the sluice so water can still pass. Unfortunately boats can not pass due to the fragility of the dam.
