The Environment Agency is progressing plans for the Pevensey Bay to Eastbourne Coastal Management scheme - the scheme will become one of the largest coastal flood risk schemes in the country, protecting an estimated 10,000 homes.
A new report by the Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs has found that a £2.6 billion, six-year programme of work dedicated to improving flood and coastal defences has exceeded its original targets by 14,000 – with over 314,000 homes now better protected from flooding since 2015.
The Environment Agency is checking hundreds of flood defence assets along the River Severn to make sure they are fully operational and ready to protect against flood risk.
The Environment Agency has submitted the planning application to build the Oxford flood alleviation scheme to reduce flood risk to the city from the River Thames.
A newly refurbished pumping station at Bentley, Doncaster, which provides greater protection to 1,699 homes and businesses, has been officially opened.
