jeanb Posted October 5, 2017 Report Share Posted October 5, 2017 From C&RT - due to a balance beam failure at Bagnall Lock at Alrewas on the Trent & Mersey, they will be manning the lock between 0900 to 1200 for the next few days. Outside of these hours transit will not be possible for safety reasons. As we're presently heading that way we would be very grateful for any updates from Forum members in the vicinity. Thanks. C&RT didn't mention any repair or permanent fix and hopefully it won't seriously impact on our travels, and there's plenty to do in Alrewas.
