MARINE NOTICE No 48 of 2024
Grand Canal – Lowtown to Shannon Harbour – Operation of Locks
Waterways Ireland wishes to advise all masters of vessels using the Grand Canal from Lowtown to Shannon Harbour that water patrollers will assist with the operation of locks between 9:30am to 6pm, Monday to Sunday, during the boating season.
Safe passage through locks outside these hours will be the responsibility of the master of the vessel, and they must ensure the lock gates are left as found, with the water pressure on the breast gates.
Waterways Ireland thanks its customers for their co-operation in relation to this matter.
