Deal, Kent
We're working collaboratively with local representatives to help reduce the risk of flooding in Deal, Kent.
The challenge
Residents in this area have experienced chronic internal flooding to their properties over many years. As heavy rainfall events increase due to climate change, properties will continue to be at risk from flooding unless we tackle the amount of surface water that gets into the combined sewer system.
In this area, we’ve identified and are investing in different approaches to manage water flows and reduce the risk of flooding for residents.
What we're doing
