This has now been confirmed by British Waterways. The problem is with the pumping system that feeds the summit level from the river, and a loss of water from the summit level between Tinsley and Sheffield, resulting in the closure of Tinsley Locks.
It may be several days before navigation can be restored. Information will be posted here as soon as it is known.
Any enquiries regarding this stoppage should be made to BW on 0113 281 6860.
Update:
The navigation is still closed. BW will issue a further update on Wednesday 30th September.
