EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The London Borough of Harrow is subject to riverine flooding from a number of watercourses, most notably the River Pinn and Wealdstone, Yeading and Edgware Brooks. The Borough also experiences pluvial, surface water and sewer flooding. In accordance with ‘Planning Policy Statement 25 (PPS25): Development and Flood Risk’, this Strategic Flood Risk Assessment (SFRA) provides an assessment of all types of flood risk within the London Borough of Harrow to inform land use planning decisions. Specifically, it provides an overview of: • main sources of flooding; • potential flood risk in the Borough; • the predicted influences of climate change; • identification of options to mitigate the potential flood risk; • the potential flood risk at allocated sites within the Borough; and • relevant planning controls, appropriate sustainable design of developments and mitigation that will be sought in new development and in the retrofitting of existing buildings and extensions.
