Flood warning issued for parts of Gedling borough
A flood warning – meaning flooding is expected and immediate action is required – has been issued for parts of Gedling borough.
Burton Joyce is at risk of flooding along with parts of Carlton and Gedling and Netherfield.
The Environment Agency, who issued the alert, said: “River levels have risen at the Lowdham river gauge as a result of heavy rainfall. Consequently, flooding of roads and farmland continues. Areas most at risk are low-lying agricultural land and roads around the tributaries of the River Trent in Nottinghamshire.
They added: “We are closely monitoring the situation. Please avoid using low-lying footpaths near local watercourses and plan driving routes to avoid low-lying roads near rivers, which may be flooded.
