Tern and Perry catchments

Flood alert

River levels remain high at the Tern – Walcot, Yeaton and Rodington river gauges as a result of heavy rainfall.
Consequently, the flooding of roads and farmland is expected. We expect flooding to affect low lying land and roads adjacent to the river from Wolverley to Newport.
Other locations that may be affected include Market Drayton, Wem and Rodington.
We expect river levels to remain high over the next few days. Further rainfall is expected over the next few days, which will keep river levels elevated, and may cause levels to rise further. We are closely monitoring the situation.
Please avoid using low lying footpaths near local watercourses and avoid contact with flood water.
This message will be updated by 5pm on Friday 29/03/2024, or as the situation changes.
