THE BOSLEY FLIGHT ON THE Macclesfield Canal has now reopened.
This was closed due to a paddle failure. Keith Gudgin reports.
The failure occurred on Monday the 30th March, with the team quickly on site and the paddle repaired yesterday, Wednesday.
The problem was that with the paddle not working properly the lock could not hold water, thus stopping navigation.
This occurred on Lock 11 that of course closed the whole flight there being no mooring allowed in the flight.
Navigation Closure
The Aire & Calder Navigation was closed at Fishpond Lock 4 yesterday, Wednesday, due to a mechanical failure.
The trust's Mechanical and Engineering Team are on site this morning, Thursday, to investigate the cause and carry out repairs.
