A full lock dewatering is required for our specialist contractors to access and if possible clear an obstruction from the Off Side Ground paddle culvert, we will also take this opportunity to survey the Tow path ground paddle culvert with CCTV, inspect and refurbish all lock and ground paddle furniture and connections, replacing or repairing as required. The lock will be closed to navigation with top and bottom stop planks installed, site will be secured from public access. Tow path will remain open.
