Please be advised that we are currently experiencing low water levels on the South Stratford Canal, particularly in the section between Lock 33 and Lock 39. This may result in empty pounds along this stretch.

Our teams are actively monitoring the situation and will continue to do so to help manage water use and minimise disruption.

For guidance on how you can help, please refer to the Thrift Code—a set of simple, effective actions boaters can take to conserve water.

We appreciate your continued support in helping to reduce water usage across the network. If you spot a leak or have any concerns, please contact us on 0303 040 4040 or visit our Contact Us page.
