The houses on Willow Close are
unlike the houses opposite the allotments, as they are built on the floodplain.
This is , therefore a high risk area everytime the river floods. Early
warnings of floods are essential, alerting the home owners and telling
them of the actions they need to take all help minimise the damage of
floods. For example moving all furniture upstairs, placing sandbags at
doors and using water pumps are measures which can be taken. |
