River levels are rising at the Besford Bridge river gauge as a result of heavy rainfall. Consequently, flooding of property, roads and farmland is expected today, Sunday 24/11/24.
We expect flooding to affect low lying land and roads adjacent to the Brooks from Webheath to Defford. Other locations that may be affected include Crowle, Wickenham, Peopleton, Pinvin and Pershore. Local fords may also be flooded.
Further rainfall is forecast over the next 24 hours. We expect river levels to remain high over the next few days.
We are closely monitoring the situation. Our incident response staff are liaising with emergency services and Local Authorities.
Please plan driving routes to avoid low lying roads near rivers, which may be flooded, and avoid contact with flood water.
