I did, and have now received a reply thusly: <Thanks for your email. Unfortunately you can't actually search for opening times using the main stoppage search, you can only view them if you go to the specific waterway page and click on 'boating' > 'stoppages': <http://www.waterscape.com/canals-and-rivers/trent-and-mersey-canal/ boati ng/stoppages <However, we are currently in the process of improving our stoppage search and this is one of the aspects we hope to change. <Apologies for any inconvenience caused.> Which is fair enough - although it doesn't explain why Saltersford & Preston Brook are catered for by the present arrangements.
