Following an inspection carried out this morning, Shripney Road will remain closed due to the current water level. In addition, a Met Office yellow weather warning is in place today, which may result in further heavy rainfall and could lead to increased water levels on the carriageway.

Our contractors have begun work to erect a temporary ramp over the flooding at Sack Lane. This will enable vehicle access for all residents. The works are currently expected to be completed by the end of Tuesday 10 February.

We will continue to monitor the situation closely and provide further updates as necessary. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
