Restriction: Between Atherstone Lock No 1 and Atherstone Lock No 11
24 Aug 2011 until further notice
Associated Regional Office: Central Shires Waterways
Customers are advised that navigation between Atherstone Lock No 1 and Atherstone Lock No 11 is to be restricted to within the hours 08:30 hours and 16:00 hours each day.
Unfortunately, these measures need to be introduced to conserve water due to the current low water levels on the Coventry & Ashby Canal summit pound and the Oxford Canal which supplies water to the summit. British Waterways will continue to monitor the levels and will advise customers as necessary.
The following locks will be padlocked to prevent passage and conserve water; Locks 1, 6 and 11. If you wish to navigate the flight and complete it before the closure you must be either at Lock 1 or Lock 11 by 12:00 as it takes approximately 4 hours to navigate the flight.
British Waterways apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.
(Enquiries: Telephone 01827 252000 during normal office hours.)
