The Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs and Environment Agency has said it now expects costs of around £16.2 billion to upgrade the flood defences in the Thames Estuary for the period 2023 to 2100 – a rise around 50% since 2012.
The Environment Agency has said it will publish an updated Thames Estuary 2100 Plan in May 2023, following the conclusion of a consultation on its proposals which ran from 26 September to 20 November in 2022.
Floods Minister Rebecca Pow has announced the first communities in England to receive better flood protection as part of the government’s £100 million Frequently Flooded Allowance to protect areas which have been affected by repeated flooding.
The Environment Agency has launched a consultation on its proposals for a new £16 million flood alleviation scheme for Tadcaster.
The Environment Agency has been progressing its £1 million project to install a gantry at Taplow Weir on the Jubilee flood relief channel which helps protect 3,200 properties in Maidenhead, Windsor, Eton and Cookham should the River Thames flood.
