The Environment Agency is getting ready to carry out essential maintenance on Lymington's Toll Bridge Road floodgate this November.
The Environment Agency tested the £7 million Northwich Flood Risk Management Scheme last week - the Agency is carrying out a large-scale training exercise in Northwich as part of a winter preparedness programme to make sure it is ready to respond to flood incidents.
New flood defence gates in Truro, Cornwall are now fully operational, securing the city's flood defences for the next 30 years - 185 properties in Truro are now protected by the newly replaced flood defence gates.
The government has unveiled sweeping reforms which will see deprived communities across the country benefit from new flood defences with a record £10.5 billion investment to defend nearly 900,000 properties in England, with new rules to get defences built more quickly.
A cross-party Committee of MPs is warning that awareness of flood risk in England is “dangerously low” and is calling on the Government to set up a single national flood reporting and information service to prevent homes and livelihoods being exposed.
