When
June to December 2021.
Where
Godstow Weir B, adjacent to the Trout Inn at Godstow.
Details
Passage through Godstow Reach will be restricted at times between June - December 2021. This will be while we build our new weir and remove the old one.
There will be a handful of navigation closures (up to 6 hours) to enable equipment to be taken to the construction site. There will also be a number of shorter closures (up to 2 hours) to allow for concrete pumping across the channel.
Where possible we will time the closures to mornings before 10am, when there is less river traffic present.
During these times boats will be held at Godstow and King’s Locks. Narrow and small craft may choose to use the Oxford Canal (free of charge for the stretch Isis Lock to Duke’s Cut and vice versa, under agreement with the Canal & River Trust for the duration of the works).
More details will be published as we get closer to construction.
