Navigation is closed between Lock 67 and Lock 70 on the Trent & Mersey Canal due to low water levels.
Our team is working to restore water levels in the affected area and is feeding additional water from Hardings Wood in our neighbouring region.
If you note that water levels are looking unusually low, please let us know. Our teams actively manage water levels and, if the water is available, refill low pounds, checking for problems and making sure moored boats on adjacent pounds stay safe.
A further update will be provided on Thursday, 20 August.
