Description

We are aware of low pounds between Locks 7 and 9. Staff have attended and put ash down to slow the leakage.

We are now waiting for the bywashes to refill the pounds.

Please can boaters be advised that running water off lock 10 will not remediate the problem in the longer term as this water will then leak out and not be replenished at lock 10 quickly.

Closest waterway:Rochdale Canal
Starts at:Lock 7
Ends at:Lock 9, Blackpit Hebden Bridge
