Please be advised that due to the recent rain, the section of river between Gloucester Lock 2 and Diglis Lock 6 is currently closed due to high water levels. We advise all customers not to navigate because the strong flows make it difficult and dangerous. The river above this section remains open as usual. You are welcome to contact us at [enquiries.walessouthwest@canalrivertrust.org.uk](mailto:enquiries.walessouthwest@canalrivertrust.org.uk) if you would like to discuss this information with a member of our Customer Service Team
