| A 60 ft narrowboat has sunk on the riverside approach at West Stockwith Lock (Lock 65).
The lock is closed until further notice due to the potential risk of collision with the sunken craft when vessels are leaving the river and entering the lock gates.
The situation will be reviewed on Monday morning, and a further update will be provided following the review. | | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | |
