Flooding news and resources for residents

FLOODING NEWS AND RESOURCES
The Parish Emergency Assistance Scheme (PEAS) is funded by Wiltshire Council and provides flood equipment and resources.
Crudwell Parish Council has received:-
2 Flood warning road signs and
2 Drive Carefully Through Flood Water road signs
Gel Sacks.  We have a limited number of gel sacks (the new ‘sandbag’)  available to Crudwell Parish residents on a first come first served basis.  We will ask you name and first line of your address on collection.
Collection by arrangement with Councillor Neil Doel – telephone 07880 556718
(If you collect the flood signs, you will be asked to return them).
Our recent activity in response to Autumn/Winter weather

We requested road signage and gel sacks for the benefit of residents.
We nominate blocked gullies for clearance and request the parish steward to hand clear drains.
We cleared the Swillbrook under our ownership of vegetation.
We are arranging a digger clearance of silt to keep the water free flowing.
We have asked Wiltshire Council to survey their section of the Swillbrook to arrange clearance.
We will be making a statement and delivering this in person to the Wessex Water community drop in on 18th November at Chippenham library, Market Place, Chippenham SN15 3HJ. Anyone can book an appointment to meet with an advisor to discuss various issues including Wessex Water plumbing and drainage.  Below is the link for further information where you can book an appointment:

enquiries about your bill, offer advice on what help is available if you are struggling to pay, or refer you to get the support you need.
Wessex Water will be able to offer advice on saving water and avoiding blockages as well as information about your water quality, plumbing, and drainage.

 
Advice from Wiltshire Council

Now that summer has come to an end and autumn and winter storms have begun, it is essential that you are prepared in case of flooding. You can check your flood risk on this map. If your community is at risk of river flooding you should sign up for Environment Agency flood warnings.
You should always know what to do in case of flooding. You can also view the latest flood alerts and warnings as a list and on an interactive map. The map not only shows river levels; it also maps groundwater levels against historical highs.
Gullies, drains and reporting
Wiltshire Council empty 60,000 gullies each year, with many emptied on a scheduled basis. Gullies on A and B roads are cleaned out each year, while those on lesser roads are visited over a two-year programme. We have also identified around 5,000 high-risk gullies that receive an annual visit.
If you or a member of your community sees a blocked gully, the best way to report is using MyWilts. When we receive a report, we will prioritise it, with blocked gullies that may create a hazard on a high-speed road or risk internal flooding to property given the highest priority.
Wiltshire Council have three high-pressure jetting machines that are deployed reactively to deal with reports from our communities and town and parish councils, while another three tankers operate to our scheduled cleaning programme.
