Flooding expected. Take action now.

Flood Warning

River levels have risen as a result of persistent heavy rainfall overnight due to Storm Ciara. A further heavy band of rain is causing the river to continue to rise so property flooding is possible this morning, 09/02/20. Properties along Brooklyn Road are most at risk.
We expect river levels to continue to rise until the early afternoon today, when the rain is forecast to ease.

We are closely monitoring the situation from our incident room. Please put your flood plan into action and see GOV.UK for a 5 day flood forecast. Please plan driving routes to avoid low lying roads near rivers, which may be flooded, and avoid contact with flood water. We will update this message by 17:50 09/02/20, or as the situation changes.
