I heard last night that the locks have now been re-opened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisK Posted September 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2005 Jon, I walked up there yesterday. The locks are open, but passage is assisted by the lock keeper through all three locks, and is restricted to certain hours with 24 hours notice required. I gather that the vandalism has partly destabilised the embankment close to lock-2. The geologists were drilling core samples when I was there, so it might be a lengthy repair job.

ChrisK Posted September 14, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2005 I had a walk up there again this lunch time. The towpath is closed from lock 1 to lock 3/4. The arrangements for escorted passage are 09:00 - 15:00, with 24 hours notice required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
