What CRT said it was for
We have done a temporary fix to Lock 13, so the lock is now operable. There is only one gate paddle currently working on the lower offside. Please check our website ( <https://canalrivertrust.org.uk/notices>) for any other restrictions to navigation in this area.

The Northampton Flight from Lock 1 to 13 has been closed due to an issue with Lock 13. The lower gate paddle has failed which means the lock is inoperable. The team will attend site tomorrow to further investigate and we will update this notice as soon as we have further information.
