Flooding expected. Take action now.
River levels have risen at the Longbridge river gauge as a result of heavy rainfall. Consequently, flooding (of property) is imminent. We expect flooding to affect properties and roads in the Cartland Road and Dogpool Lane areas, the Avenues and Sir John's Road areas.
Further rainfall is forecast this evening and overnight, 26/09/2024. We expect river levels to remain high until tomorrow morning, 26/09/2024.
We are closely monitoring the situation. Our incident response staff are actively checking river levels and the weather forecast.
Please plan driving routes to avoid low lying roads near rivers, which may be flooded and avoid contact with flood water.
This message will be updated tomorrow, 27/09/2024 or as the situation changes.
