River levels are rising at the Church Wilne river gauge as a result of rainfall and snowmelt associated with Storm Bert. Consequently, flooding of roads and farmland is possible from 09:00 this morning, 24/11/2024. Areas most at risk are low-lying agricultural land and roads including Church Wilne, Draycott, and Wilne Lane between Draycott and Sawley.
Further rainfall is forecast over the next 24 hours.
We expect river levels to remain high until early on Monday morning, 25/11/2024.
We are closely monitoring the situation. Our incident response staff have been patrolling watercourses in the area.
Please plan driving routes to avoid low-lying roads near rivers, which may be flooded and avoid contact with flood water.
To check the status of road closures online, please visit the One Network live map.
This message will be updated by 17:00 on 24/11/2024, or as the situation changes.
