Flood Warning Still in Effect B1040 @ 221342z
B1040 Thorney to Whittlesey Road to the South of the River Nene
Flooding is expected – immediate action required
Heavy rain that has fallen over the River Nene catchment over the last few days, means that the Whittlesey Wash flood storage reservoir is being operated to protect nearby communities from flooding. The rising levels in the Wash has resulted in flooding of the B1040 road. Whilst the Flood Warning is in force, the Local Authority may close the B1040 for safety reasons. Diversionary routes will be put in place, and further updates will be available through local media. This Flood Warning is expected to stay in force for a few days, until water levels recede. Please follow diversionary routes until the Local Authority re-open the road. We will be closely monitoring the situation, and this message will be updated on Saturday, 23rd January, or as the situation changes.

Flood Warning – No Longer in Effect – North Bank Only 221135z
This is a message from the Environment Agency.
Flood Warning no longer in force: North Bank Road alongside the River Nene, east of Peterborough and west of Dog-in-a-Doublet Sluice.
The situation is improving and no further flooding is expected in this area.
Flood Warnings and Alerts may still be in force for surrounding areas.
Due to the low tides and improved forecast, Friday 22nd January, we are currently able to discharge water, and therefore further localised flooding at North Bank Road is not expected.
The road will be reopened once the Highways Authority have been able to inspect the road surface, and carry out any necessary works to ensure the road is passable.

Lower Nene
Flooding is possible – be prepared
Over the last week we have seen heavy rainfall across the River Nene area, with a further pulse of rain last night, falling on an already saturated catchment. This means river levels will remain high today, Thursday, 21st January, and for the next few days, leading to continued flooding of low lying land and roads close to the river. We expect the river to remain high throughout today, and for the next few days. Flood Warnings remain in place at North Bank Road and the B1040. Please avoid using low lying footpaths near local watercourses and plan driving routes to avoid low lying roads near rivers, which may be flooded. We are constantly monitoring river levels, and have staff in the field checking for blockages and clearing weedscreens.
This message will be updated on Friday, 22nd January, or as the situation changes.
