Flood warning

River levels have risen as a result of the recent persistent rainfall. Consequently, flooding of property and roads is expected. Areas most at risk are properties on Union Street and Beck Lane. Further rainfall is forecast over the next 12 hours. We expect river levels to remain high until throughout the rest of today (06/02/2021) and into tomorrow. Our incident response staff are closely monitoring the forecast and checking defences. Please move possession and valuables off the ground or to safety and avoid contact with flood water.
