There is further evidence of pollution entering the navigation so a clean up of the containment equipment cannot be completed at this time. The Environment Agency will be attending tomorrow (14th Jan) and our specialist contractors have been requested to attend site to carry out an investigation into the source of the ongoing pollution.

This notice will be updated when we receive further information.

The clean up and reopening of the navigation is due to take place on Tuesday the 13th of January.

Any further updates will be posted on this notice.

We are currently waiting for a date from our contractors as to when they are going to attend the site to assist us with the retrieval and disposal of the spill equipment.

This notice will be updated on Friday the 19th of December.

We have assurance that there is no more pollution entering the canal and have a plan to clear up what remains over the next few days.

Once this is completed we will be able to reopen the navigation. This notice will be updated on Monday the 15th of December with a date.

We have a Pollution Incident in the navigation from a diesel spillage. We are currently working closely with the Environment Agency to locate the source of the diesel. We have placed booms and absorption pads around the diesel to prevent its spread. We will update the notice when we receive any further information.
