River levels remain high at the Sandhurst river gauge following recent heavy rainfall. Flooding continues. We expect flooding to affect low lying land and roads on both sides of the river from Tewkesbury to Quedgeley, Gloucester. Locations that may be affected include Apperley and Maisemore. Severn Ham, Tewkesbury starts to fill. Mythe peaked at 3.99m on Wednesday afternoon, Haw Bridge peaked at 4.91m on Wednesday afternoon, Sandhurst peaked at 3.31m on Wednesday morning. Further heavy rainfall is forecast over the next 48 hours. We expect river levels to fall and then rise again as a result of this rainfall. We are closely monitoring the situation. Please avoid using low lying footpaths near local watercourses and plan driving routes to avoid low lying roads near rivers, which may be flooded. This message will be updated by 10am on 08/12/23, or as the situation changes.
