Please be advised that a full closure of the Rushall Lock Flight is in place with immediate effect.

Water levels across the Rushall Canal are currently critically low. Ongoing misuse and suspected vandalism are contributing to significant overnight water losses, resulting in levels falling to an unsustainable position. Bradley pumps have been operating at full capacity for over two weeks, with limited improvement.

Our teams will continue to closely monitor the situation and will reopen the flight as soon as it is safe and operationally viable to do so.
