Navigation on the Middle Level
The Middle Level, apart from its flood protection role, is also the fourth largest navigation authority in the United Kingdom and is responsible for approximately 100 miles (160 kilometres) of statutory navigation and the operation of six navigation locks.
The Nene-Ouse Navigation Link forms part of the Middle Level Navigation. The Link is at present the only connection between the Great Ouse and the Main Canal Network.
During a normal summer, over 1,000 passages of the Link-Route are made by pleasure craft.
The Commissioners issue Navigation Notes, which provide navigation details for boat owners, who wish to use the system. See Navigation documents for more information.
PLEASE NOTE
The facilities at March Town Bridge navigation service block are not the responsibility of the Commissioners, but of Fenland District Council. Any queries or issues concerning these facilities should therefore be directed to the Council on 01354 654321.
