The joint plan by Cumbria County Council and the Environment Agency involves two major developments. The first involves a flood basin being created in a silage field off Springs Road which will be sealed so that vast amounts of water can be stored there during storms. The second is the installation of a pumping station at the war memorial bus shelter in Penrith Road, which will remove surface water and pump it into the nearby River Greta.
