Please be advised that there is currently low water between Lock 70, Froxfield Bottom Lock and Lock 71, Picketsfield lock.
The pound was drained this morning and staff have been working to refill it but are now at the point that no further water can be brought down to refill the pound.
The section is navigable with care, but please stay to the centre of the channel and when going through locks please make sure that you shut down the top gate paddles fully.
Please do not moor in this section until further notice.
