Flooding expected. Take action now.
High river levels are causing flooding today.
Heavy rainfall has caused river levels to rise. River levels have now peaked on the River Fowey, but remain high.
The main areas of concern are properties and low lying areas around Coulson Park, the Sewage Treatment Works, Lostwithiel Railway Station, Quay Street, and properties along The Parade. Flood waters may be deep and fast flowing in these areas.
We are closely monitoring the situation.
Take care and avoid walking, cycling or driving through flood water
