Flood risk management

Flood risk management plans set out actions to reduce the impact of flooding.

Watercourse inspections and clearance

We have a duty to assess bodies of water and carry out works of clearance and repair where it will substantially reduce the risk of flooding. Works are scheduled and done based on priority.

Programmed inspections

We publish our inspection schedule for each area. We'll assess and prioritise any clearance or repair work identified during inspections.

 

Reactive inspections

We carry out reactive inspections if there is a flood event or if someone highlights something of concern to us.
