Bosley Top Lock No 1
Opening Times
Navigation closure notice: Macclesfield Canal, Navigation: Closed, Towpath: OpenUpdate on 28/09/2018:
In the latter half of September the Macclesfield & Peak Forest Canal reservoirs have benefited from significant rainfall, resulting in an increase in water levels both in the reservoirs and the canal. We appreciate this summer has seen significant disruption to our boating customers and many need to return to home and winter moorings. We are now in a position to re-open the canal at the Bosley Flight on 6th October.
However to try and conserve water, we will initially operate with restrictions between 8am and 1pm daily
• Last passage at lock 1 and lock 12 will be at 1pm, this is to allow our teams to assist boats through the flight.
We will review these restrictions during the first week with the aim of removing them as soon as possible.
The Bosley Flight will then close on the 5th November to allow the winter works at Locks 8 and Lock 12 to be completed. (The winter works stoppage notices will be updated to reflect time duration changes).
Monday the 23rd of July, 2018 to Tuesday the 23rd of July, 2019Information sent Friday the 28th of September, 2018
Facilities: chemical toilet disposal, rubbish disposal, showers, toilets and water point.
