Annual Lockage Report 2014 Annual Lockage Report 2014 Produced: Jan 2015 Annual Lockage Report 2014 Annual Lockage Report 2014 The monitoring of lock operations across the network remains an essential element in our water resources management, business and corporate planning. This report marks the 14th year of publishing an Annual Lockage Report. For the 2014 report, we have based the analysis of each Waterway on those lock sites with complete records for both 2013 and 2014 (the comparison sites). Lockage can be defined simply as lock usage through the filling and emptying of a lock chamber, which in turn allows the movement of water and passage of boats. It is important to distinguish lockage from boat movements, which are the actual number of boats which travel through a lock. We have separated boat movements from lockage to acknowledge that averages can be skewed by the boat:lockage ratio (in the case of a typical broad lock, the ratio can be between one and four boats per lockful of water used). The number of lockage and boat movement comparison sites included in the report is 175, an increase of 22 compared with 2013. The total number of lock monitoring sites giving an annual total has increased from 163 (in 2013) to 169 (in 2014). Increased reliability and geographical coverage of lock counters gives us a much better appreciation of overall trends. In the Appendix we have included, for information only, the sites where a complete record for 2013 and 2014 is not available. Nationally, the average number of recorded lock operations in 2014 increased by 2% compared with 2013, (for those sites where data was available for both 2013 and 2014). All Waterways showed an increase in lock usage with the exception of Central Shires and South East. The reasons for these year to year variations are complex and are not fully understood. In terms of weather, 2014 was an average year meaning that the main boating season was unaffected. The heavy rainfall and floods experienced at the beginning of 2014 would have had an effect on lock usage in those weeks but very little overall impact on the annual total. The report contains the following: a summary table ranking the Waterways by average annual lock operations for 2014; a map showing average annual lockage by Waterway, a graph showing the estimated annual lockage by Waterway and detailed reports of lockage and boat movements for each Waterway for the last three years, separated into the individual canals within the Waterway. The Appendix provides the data for the incomplete sites (i.e. those for which good quality data for both 2013 and 2014 was unavailable). I trust you find this report informative.

    Annual Lockage Report 2015 Produced: Jan 2016 Annual Lockage Report 2015 Annual Lockage Report 2015 The monitoring of lock operations across the Canal & River Trust network remains an essential element in our water resources management but also to understand the changing patterns in use of the 2,000 miles of waterways in our care. This report marks the 15th year of publishing an Annual Lockage Report, and covers the period January to December 2015. Lockage can be defined simply as lock usage through the filling and emptying of a lock chamber, which in turn allows the movement of water and passage of boats. It is important to distinguish lockage from boat movements, which are the actual number of boats which travel through a lock. We have separated boat movements from lockage to acknowledge that averages can be skewed by the boat:lockage ratio (in the case of a typical broad lock, the ratio can be between one and four boats per lockful of water used). For this report, we have based the analysis of each Waterway on those sites with complete records for both 2014 and 2015 (known as the comparison sites). The number of comparison sites included in the 2015 report is 177, an increase of 2 compared with the previous report. In the Appendix we have included, for information only, sites where the data was of insufficient quality for 2014 and/or 2015 and therefore could not be used for year-to-year comparison. Nationally, the number of recorded lock operations in 2015 decreased by 0.75% compared with 2014, (for those sites where data was available for both 2014 and 2015).
