Between Lock 22, Fenny Stratford Lock and Lock 23, Stoke Hammond Lock, Near Bletchley

CRT's own dates put the reopening (31 October 2025) before the start (4 November 2025), which cannot be right. The notice is excluded from every duration figure rather than counted as a negative length.

A Third party will be doing various eel surveys in the Grand Union Canal, which is a requirement for eel screening. The Environment Agency are aware. They will be placing a fyke net in the navigation to enable this. This navigation closure will run from 13:00 on the 4 November through to 17:00 on the 5 November 2025.
