The continued lack of prolonged rainfall means that our reservoirs are depleted and the feed from them needs to be turned off to allow them to replenish.
Therefore from 4pm on Thursday 6th November the navigation from Foxton Lock Flight through to Kilby Lock 30 will be closed. Last boat in for passage through Foxton Locks is 3pm.
It is vital that we close to allow the reservoirs to recover fully over the winter.
We will continue to monitor the situation and will update this notice by Thursday 11th December or sooner if the situation changes.
