Anyone know what has collapsed into the canal between locks 9 and 10 as the canal is closed.

 

due to a land slip between Lock 9 and lock 10 Birmingham & Fazeley canal

 

09/05/2021 14:09

navigation is now closed between Locks 9 and 10, Birmingham & Fazeley canal. 

Please use alternative route via Digbeth Branch, GU and Birmingham & Warwick branch canal.

It also indicates that its not actually blocked 

 

due to a land slip between Lock 9 and lock 10 Birmingham & Fazeley canal (BF-004-008 to BF-004-011) The canal is still passable with care

advised alternative route is via Digbeth branch and Warwick branch canals

No Aston restarts at 1 I believe, 9 and 10 are near the bottom.

That is clearly what CRT are doing, but canalplan has them as you would expect from 1 at the top of FB continuing down Aston.  So if B&F lock 1 is the top of Aston what numbers are used for FB, negative!  I think the notice should really say locks 9 and 10 of the Aston flight on the B&F, as those numbers just relate to the flight, not the canal as a whole.

 

I see on the website the update says it is closed, but I did not get an email for that update, just for the original.

That is the notification I had but when I then checked on the CRT site there was an update to say it was now closed.  I only checked as I know Scorpio is due to go through Aston this week to get back to Icknield Port.
