Caversham Reach & Local River Hazards Advisory

Flow rates measured at Caversham Weir / Lock telemetry stations directly affect river velocity. When flow exceeds 35 m³/s, crews turning near Caversham Lock must allow extra clearance distance above the weir line. Always row on the proper side of navigation markers, and maintain high visual vigilance for floating river debris after high rainfall events upstream.
