ESSENTIAL MAINTENANCE

Closure of Ringsend Sea Lock

Waterways Ireland wishes to advise owners and masters that due to essential electrical and mechanical maintenance the Sea Lock at Ringsend (Buckingham Lock) is closed to navigation until further notice.  This will prevent boat passage between Grand Canal Basin and the River Liffey whilst maintenance works are ongoing.

As works progress it may be possible to make passage by prior arrangement, but this will be entirely dependent on the stage of works. If wishing to make arrangement please contact the Dock Superintendent, Mark Clarke, on 087 258 4713, who will be able to advise accordingly.

Waterways Ireland apologises for any inconvenience this closure may cause its customers.
