Flooding possible. Be prepared.
River levels are forecast to rise at the Chatsworth river gauge as a result of heavy rainfall overnight in to Wednesday 01/01/25. Consequently, flooding of roads and farmland is expected to begin between 00:00 and 06:00 tomorrow, 01/01/25.
Areas most at risk are low-lying agricultural land and roads including Bamford, Leadmill, Curbar, Grindleford, and Rowsley.
Heavy rainfall is forecast over the next 24 hours. We expect river levels to begin rising at 22:00 on 31/12/24.
We are closely monitoring the situation. Our incident response staff are liaising with emergency services and patrolling watercourses in the area.
Please plan driving routes to avoid low-lying roads near rivers, which may be flooded and avoid contact with flood water.
To check the status of road closures online, please visit the One Network live map.
This message will be updated by 09:00 tomorrow morning, 01/01/25, or as the situation changes.
