Richmond Lock #3 Arch
14th January 2022
The PLA, who are keen to make sure all rowing clubs who might go through Richmond Half-tide lock are aware of the NTM U1 of 2022.
There has been a mechanical failure of the weir in #3 arch (the Centre arch) which will remain in the lowered position and closed to navigation.
Since the other two weirs will continue operate normally, there is likely to be a lot of turbulence coming off the closed weir which will make navigating through the other two arches difficult. Repairs to the weir are going to take some time to organise so while the weir is down please navigate with great care if transiting Richmond half-tide lock.
