Napton/ Claydon Lock flights

[me2u]

Can anyone confirm current opening and last entry times for Napton and Claydon lock flights ! Thanks in advance.

I came over the top last week and the hours were basically 10am to 1pm so you're clear of the flight by 2pm. I came from south to north and there was a queue of about 8 at Claydon but we hit a queue of 15 or more at Marston Doles.

 

At the Napton end it's only locks 15&16 at Marston Doles that are locked.

 

I understand that there was a problem at Claydon last Wednesday morning, a paddle was stuck open and the flight was closed for the morning, because of this they listed the restrictions allowing free flow of boats until 1pm on Thursday
