Flooding expected. Take action now.
This flood warning remains in force due to a significant breach of the left bank of the Aire and Calder Navigation near the River Don at New Bridge. We understand that flood waters have impacted the area around West and East Cowick, including the A614. We are currently working with our partners to carry out emergency repairs, though properties closest to the drains at these locations may still be at risk until the work is complete. We are closely monitoring the situation. Our incident response staff are liaising with the Local Authorities and the Canals and Rivers Trust in order to manage the situation. Please plan driving routes to avoid low lying roads near rivers and the canal, which may be flooded, and avoid using low lying footpaths near local watercourses. This message will be updated by 20:10 23/12/2020, or as the situation changes.
