Nottinghamshire villages and Lower Thames Strategy

JBA has been undertaking numerous property level flood protection surveys across the length and breadth of the country. 

These have included properties in Cambridge, Great Ayton, Bodenham,  Cross Keys, Hereford, Osney Island, Oxford, Pershore, Paignton, South Zeal, Okehampton, Halton, Widnes, Rochdale and Newbury.  Properties at risk of flooding are surveyed and suitable flood resistance measures are identified for each one. 


Before Christmas, JBA undertook 20 such surveys in a number of villages downstream of Nottingham.  Contractors have been appointed to install the recommended measures (door barriers, automatic air bricks, non-return valves etc) in 16 of them.



JBA recently attended a public drop-in event in Caythorpe for residents to discuss recommendations for their property in detail, and to see example products.


JBA is also involved in undertaking property surveys as part of the Lower Thames Strategy.


The National Flood Forums new ‘Flood Information Trailer’ (pictured below) is being used at drop-in sessions. 


The project is being managed through the Environment Agency’s ‘Flood Resistance Measures of Individual Properties’ Framework.
