Navigation remains closed between Lock 1 and Lock 18 on the Ashton Canal due to damaged paddles at Lock 14 and Lock 15.

We will provide a further update on or before Wednesday 12 August.

Please be advised navigation is currently closed at lock 18 to lock 9 on the Ashton canal due to paddle failures at locks 14 and 15.
