Fradley stoppages

RALPH Freeman asked about the stoppages at Fradley—there is a short 'window' for those wanting to pass, writes Chris Wells.

I can confirm that Shadehouse Lock and Middle Lock at Fradley have both been closed for a week now for maintenance—they are both destined for closure for another two weeks yet, i.e. they should both be open again 25/11/2011.

Thereafter, Hunts Lock and Keepers Lock at Fradley are closed for maintenance 28/11/2011 to 16/12/2011. So, in theory, there is a two day window 26-27/11/2011 for those wishing to freely navigate this junction.
