Please be advised that Lock 10 on the Aston Flight remains closed to navigation due to a lock beam failure.

We are currently arranging the necessary resources and equipment, and we anticipate being on-site to carry out the repair work on Monday. A further update will be provided on Monday once our team has attended and assessed the next steps. In the meantime, navigation remains possible via the alternative route at Garrison Locks.
