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.
Schools across Central Bedfordshire are being recognised for their commitment to sustainability, with 29 achieving Eco-Schools Green Flag accreditation during the 2024/25 academic year.
We're calling on residents, landowners, schools, and community groups to take part in the Tree Tally survey and help shape the future of our green spaces.
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.
We've been recognised for our outstanding commitment to sustainable travel, winning top honours at the Modeshift STARS National Travel Awards and the TravelWise Week Awards 2024/25.
