Flood/Gully problems – who to contact?

October 20th, 2022 Posted by Local News 0 thoughts on “Flood/Gully problems – who to contact?”

If residents wish to report any blocked Gullys or need assistance in the event of flood, they need to make contact with the ERYC direct, unless of course the situation escalates and the Parish Council instigate the Emergency Plan.  Please do not refer residents to myself as I am unable to report anything any other way then residents are able to do themselves.  Details as follows:

It is advisable that residents sign up to the Environment Agency Flood Alerts by visiting: https://check-for-flooding.service.gov.uk/target-area/122WAF974

In the event of a resident wishing to report a blocked gully, residents should call the ERYC on 01482 393939 or visit: Flooding and drainage (eastriding.gov.uk)

https://www.eastriding.gov.uk/environment/roads-streets-traffic-and-parking/roads-pavements-and-traffic/drainage-and-flooding/

What will the ERYC do if my property starts to flood?

The ERYC council will endeavour to provide sandbags only to stop water coming off the public highway where it may pose a risk of flooding homes. Should this occur then contact contact us on (01482) 393939. Where water is running off adjacent land then householders must take whatever action is necessary to protect their property in conjunction with the relevant adjoining landowners.

Environment Agency Update

October 20th, 2022 Posted by Local News 0 thoughts on “Environment Agency Update”

A Flood Alert has been issued by the Environment Agency.

Flood Alert in force: River Foulness and Market Weighton catchment.

Flooding is possible for: The River Foulness and the Market Weighton Canal and their tributaries.

Be prepared.

 The Flood Alert for the River Foulness and Market Weighton is now in force. This flood alert has been issued due to rising river levels caused by persistent rainfall over the last few hours. The area of particular concern is around South Cave, and flooding may occur on low lying roads, farmlands and paths in this area. Further persistent rainfall is expected through the afternoon and into the evening today, Thursday 20/10/2022, and river levels are expected to rise further. We are monitoring the situation closely, and will update this message by 16:00 today, or as the situation changes.

What you should consider doing now

———————————————

* Monitor local water levels and weather conditions. 

* Get ready to act on your flood plan if you have one.

* Move your car or other vehicles to higher ground, if it is safe to do so.

* Prepare a flood kit of essential items including a torch with spare batteries, mobile phone and charger, warm clothes, home insurance documents, water, food, first aid kit and any prescription medicines or baby care items you may need.

* Check that you know how to turn off your gas, electricity and water mains supplies.

* In rural locations, farmers should consider moving livestock and equipment away from areas likely to flood.

* Avoid walking, cycling or driving through flood water. 30 cm of fast-flowing water can move a car and 6 inches can knock an adult off their feet.
