​UPDATE from CANAL & RIVERS TRUST:

 Just an update to say that we are currently planning the works required and hope to have all the RAMS, permits etc in place to be able to carry out repairs on Friday. To do this the team will mobilise tomorrow and start dewatering (lowering water level) from tomorrow afternoon.
Contact has been made with Highways and we will endeavour to work with them to ensure they can re-open the road as soon as possible.
