The Environment Agency said in early October that the weir walkway will remain open until river flows increase, but the supporting structure still needs refurbishment to reach full strength. Because of this, the walkway remains at risk of temporary closure during high flows or when construction work begins.

Today there are multiple signs warning that the weir walkway is closed, with river levels now at their highest since that announcement was made.

And when you get close the weir walkway is closed.

For anyone who will miss seeing the rush of water over the weir, here is a short video taken a couple of days ago.
