The Environment Agency has pledged between £3.5 million to £5 million to restore the flood protection to Matlock, Derbyshire with a long-term solution to reinstate the River Derwent flood defences to protect 50 homes and businesses from flooding.
New research by the Environment Agency has highlighted clear links between social deprivation and the likelihood of flooding.
The Environment Agency will start work next on the construction of a new embankment and bridge at Lower Otter in Devon above the height of the existing floodplain, providing access to a more resilient road in times of flooding.
James Heath, Chief Executive Officer at the National Infrastructure Commission, has set out the approach the Commission is taking to its ongoing study on surface water flooding, together with potential areas the NIC is likely to make recommendations on, including governance, performance standards and investment levels.
The Environment Agency has created a new intertidal habitat at Calstock on the River Tamar in Cornwall.
