THREE STOPPAGES on the Huddersfield Narrow Canal have been cleared.
This allowing navigation, Keith Gudgin reports.
There has been a successful repair to the damaged cill at Lock 26W, with navigation now resumed.
There has been another successful repair to the damaged cill at Lock 29W, and again navigation has been resumed.
Following the successful repairs to Lock 26W and Lock 29W, the trust's local team has now restored water levels between Lock 24W and Lock 32W, and again navigation has now resumed.
Leeds & Liverpool Canal
Water levels between Lock 87 and Lock 89 on the Leeds & Liverpool Canal are replenishing well, we are told.
The local team continued allowing levels to recover throughout yesterday, Friday, with the navigation expected to resume today.
Rochdale Canal
Not so good on the Rochdale Canal however as navigation remains closed at Little Clegg Swing Bridge. This due to a fault with the lock mechanism and the hydraulic hose that operates the swing bridge.
Contractors have attended site and are currently developing a suitable method of repair.
In the meantime, assisted passages will be available to help boaters navigate through the Swing Bridge, available on Monday to Friday: 8:30am to 2:00pm. Ring 0303 040 4040 with at least 48 hours' notice.
