Partners continue to support communities in Worcestershire

The multi-agency flood response is continuing in Worcestershire this weekend.

Earlier this week a major incident was declared in the county as water levels along the River Severn continued to rise.

On Monday the Environment Agency also issued a Severe Flood Warning due to a risk the water levels could overtop the temporary flood defence barriers in Bewdley.

Levels in Bewdley, Worcester and Upton have now peaked and are starting to recede.

Today, Worcestershire’s Tactical Co-Ordination Group (TCG), the multi-agency group who respond to local incidents, met to review the impact of the recent storms.
