Due to the investigation works for the leak still ongoing, there is still no passage through Lock 1 to Lock 4. Works will be continuing through next week too. As soon as we receive any further information, we will update the notice.

Unfortunately, the 'one day' only boat passage that was going to occur on the Friday 20th June is cancelled. The stretch from Lock 5 to Lock 16 is currently closed, so there is no boat movement past Lock 5 and the section between Lock 4 and Lock 1 is still closed due to carrying out the leak inspection works too. Permitting, the improvement of water levels and the progress of the leak inspection works, volunteers are hoping that they will be able to offer the 'one day only - time window' on the Friday 27th June instead. We will update the notice with further timings if this arrangement is able to go ahead before the 26th June.

As part of our ongoing investigations, the pound between Locks 1 and 4 will be refilled for a short period of time. This allows us the opportunity to facilitate boat passage through Tuel Lane Locks on Friday 20th June only between 10:00AM to 3:00PM Volunteers will be in attendance on-site between 10:00 AM and 3:00 PM to provide assistance. The closure will remain after Friday until we have further investigation results and we can plan a repair, we aim to update this notice by Friday 27th June.

The canal remains closed at the moment. In the last week we lost water in the pound above lock 6, due to paddles being left open, and this pound has not yet recovered. We have installed a pump at lock 16 which is improving the water levels down to lock 8, but this is not yet navigable. Meanwhile we are conducting further investigations at pound 2 to try to identify and resolve the cause of a leak. As soon as we get more information, we will update this notice.

We are continuing to closely monitor the water levels, which have yet to recover. The route remains unnavigable and will stay closed between Lock 1 and Lock 24. We will provide a further update by Friday 23rd May.
