Flooding expected. Take action now.
Rising river levels are expected to cause flooding overnight.
Flooding is expected from the evening of 27 January 2026 .
Areas most at risk are access and egress to properties and businesses at Haslam’s Lane, Folly Road and Darley Mills, as Haslam's Lane becomes inundated and Darley Abbey Toll Bridge remains closed. If levels continue to rise, self-evacuation from the area will not be possible, and properties around Darley Street and Folly Road will also be at risk. The current forecast suggests access could be lost overnight from 19:00 on 27/01/2026 until 06:00 on 28/01/2026. Properties are not at risk of flooding based on the predicted peak level.
We are closely monitoring the situation .
Take care and avoid walking, cycling or driving through flood water .
This message will be updated by 9:00AM on 28 January 2026 or as the situation changes.
