With the country experiencing one of the driest years on record the charity had to take the difficult decision to close the locks at the beginning of August, as the reservoirs that feed the canal were getting critically low. Closing the locks was necessary to maintain water in the canal, keeping boats afloat, safeguarding wildlife and protecting the canal infrastructure.

While there has only been a very slight improvement in reservoir holdings, the Trust is taking the opportunity to reopen the locks for one week (from 27 October until 2 November). The charity’s volunteer lock keepers will be opening up the locks each day, enabling boaters to return to their home moorings or get to essential services before winter, and helping boating businesses to make the most of the final weeks of autumn.
