  • The Draft Flood Risk Management Plan for the Severn River Basin District
    The draft flood risk management plan for the Severn River Basin District Environmental report October 2014 Environmental report The Severn draft flood risk management plan This is a joint draft plan prepared by the Environment Agency, Natural Resources Wales and Lead Local Flood Authorities who protect and improve the environment and make it a better place for people and wildlife. The Environment Agency We are the Environment Agency. We protect and improve the environment and make it a better place for people and wildlife. We operate at the place where environmental change has its greatest impact on people’s lives. We reduce the risks to people and properties from flooding; make sure there is enough water for people and wildlife; protect and improve air, land and water quality and apply the environmental standards within which industry can operate. Acting to reduce climate change and helping people and wildlife adapt to its consequences are at the heart of all that we do. We cannot do this alone. We work closely with a wide range of partners including government, business, local authorities, other agencies, civil society groups and the communities we serve Natural Resources Wales Our purpose is to ensure that the natural resources of Wales are sustainably maintained, used and enhanced, now and in the future We will work for the communities of Wales to protect people and their homes as much as possible from environmental incidents like flooding and pollution. We will provide opportunities for them to learn, use and benefit from Wales' natural resources We will work for Wales' economy and enable the sustainable use of natural resources to support jobs and enterprise.

  • Approaches to Building Flood Resilience for Communities
    Approaches to building flood resilience for Communities A Worcestershire case study exploring issues and opportunities for the historic environment in relation to flooding Summary In 2014/15 Historic England commissioned Worcestershire Archive and Archaeology Service, in collaboration with Dr Andy Howard of Landscape Research and Management, and community and organisational partners, to investigate the direct and indirect effects of flooding, to the county's historic environment and landscape character. A key recommendation of the project was the need to further investigate how the historic environment profession can better engage with communities and individuals looking to build resilience and plan for future flood events. This report further investigates the relationships between historic environment professionals, communities and 'hard to reach' groups, including insurance companies, loss adjustors, structural engineers and building contractors. The issues highlighted, through surveys and communications, are laid out alongside case studies of, and opportunities for, good practice. The surveys, discussions with local communities and examples of existing projects, show that there is a lot that can be achieved in terms of empowering communities to build resilience for the future, and a lot that the historic environment profession can do to support this. At an individual building level there are problems with a lack of understanding of traditional construction methods by many of the parties pushing for property-level interventions. The historic environment profession needs to disseminate our knowledge and advice in better ways because the evidence shows that the owners and custodians of these properties are keen to receive it. On a wider scale whole-catchment projects offer an opportunity for communities to be involved in reducing and mitigating flood risk through enhancement of the natural and historic environment.

Introduction 1.1 Background The A46 corridor runs for 250 kilometres between the South West of England and Humberside, through the Midlands. The corridor comprises the M69 and short sections of the M1 and A45. At either end, the corridor divides into a number of corridors, notably the A15 and A1173 in the north, and the A44 and A435 in the south (the A46 begins again in Cheltenham and continues via Stroud to Bath). The majority of the A46 corridor is within the area of interest for this study, as shown in Figure 1-1. The A46 corridor performs many functions: a bypass to the major settlements along its length (such as Coventry, Leicester, Newark and Lincoln); a connection between radial road corridors (such as the M1 and A1); and providing access to the Port of Bristol, the Humber Ports, and South Wales. The road’s form is as varied as its function: from single carriageway ‘A’ road with local accesses to three-lane dual carriageways and motorways. As a consequence of the design of the roads in the corridor and the widely-varying demand for its use, the performance of the corridor also varies considerably.
