We are encouraging residents to take simple steps to prepare for flooding and be ready for periods of heavy rainfall, during the national Flood Action Week campaign.
Action to tackle flooding in the Pix Brook catchment has begun at Etonbury Woods, with the removal of a disused footbridge marking the first visible step in a wider ‘Slow the Flow’ programme of work.
Safer pavements, clearer road markings and new flood technology – £148,000 of upgrades are helping keep Central Bedfordshire’s roads open and accessible.
Central Bedfordshire Council has convened a third multi-agency Flood Summit to review progress, share outcomes, and continue collaborative action to address local flood risk.
At a meeting on 1 April, Members of our Executive will be asked to approve plans to consult on a proposed change to the Council’s Home to School Transport policy for students aged 5 to 16.
