Update on 08/08/2023:

Unfortunately there has been a delay with the arrival of the parts, which are now expected to arrive tomorrow morning. We are therefore hoping to have the parts fitted and navigation open tomorrow around 10am (09/08/23) 

Update on 07/08/2023:

Please be advised the local team will be going out at 3pm today (07/08/23) and 8am tomorrow (08/08/23) to manually let any waiting boats through.

NAVIGATION CLOSURE (11am Monday 7 August until 11am Tuesday 8 August 2023)

Shirley Drawbridge is currently inoperable due to the barrier being faulty.

Contractors will be arriving on site at 11am tomorrow to replace the barrier, so navigation should be back open again then.
