The County has received a large amount of rainfall in a short space of time and as such we are having to prioritise flooding sites which pose a risk to life or significant risk of internal flooding. It’s worth noting that at times of extreme weather even well-maintained drains and watercourses can become overwhelmed. Should you feel your property is at risk your first action should be to contact the emergency services who will assess the situation and act accordingly. A site visit has been undertaken by a HO, gullies not blocked, no issues recorded following last cyclic cleanse. No further action required at this time.
