Remedial works have now been carried out to protect the bank in the short term from further erosion.Further repairs will be required and once we have confirmed dates, a notice will be put on the website.Boaters are asked to continue to proceed with care.

At Top Bridge, approximately 500m below Pillings Lock, on the River Soar there is a bank slippage. The flood waters have washed back into the navigation and removed a 10m section of bank, where the debris is also encroaching on the towpath.

We ask boaters to please pass this section with care while investigations are carried out and caution should also be taken when passing on the towpath.

We will update this notice by the 31st March or as soon as we have further information.
