Update on 27/01/2025:

Unfortunately, the works planned at sluice 10, between bridge 30 Woods Bridge and bridge 33, Higherfold Bridge have been delayed.

The contractor’s plant/equipment has been delayed in getting to site. The new closure date is the 29 January 2025, the end date remains the same, 07 February 2025.

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.

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.
