Awaiting Planning consent<br />
The unprecedented rainfall June 2007 caused significant<br />
amounts of flood damage across the whole of the<br />
borough and resulted in properties being inundated in 48<br />
separate locations. All three of <strong>Barnsley</strong>’s main rivers –<br />
Dearne, Don and the Dove were affected in that they were<br />
unable to contain the flood waters.<br />
The effects of the flooding were not limited to households,<br />
as <strong>Barnsley</strong> MBC suffered severe damage to key<br />
infrastructure such as roads, bridges and culverted<br />
watercourses which feed these main rivers. These<br />
watercourses became choked with debris washed down<br />
from upstream areas, and in many cases this led to<br />
flooding of highways and homes. In other cases the<br />
volume of water caused these watercourses to become<br />
overwhelmed leading to flooding.<br />
BARNSLEY<br />
Metropolitan Borough <strong>Council</strong><br />
Since June 2007 <strong>Barnsley</strong> <strong>Council</strong> has carried out a wide<br />
range of activities to repair, replace and improve assets<br />
which were damaged as a result of the floods. Its staff has<br />
worked hard to locate areas which pose a risk of flooding<br />
and have developed innovative solutions to reduce the risk<br />
of a reoccurrence of the events of June 2007.<br />
The map overleaf highlights the areas where remedial<br />
action has been taken to by both <strong>Barnsley</strong> <strong>Council</strong> alone,<br />
and in conjunction with its partners to alleviate the<br />
problems which caused flooding in 2007.<br />
<strong>Barnsley</strong> <strong>Council</strong> will continue to seek out and deal with<br />
problems in watercourses and highways drainage systems<br />
that pose a risk of flooding to residents of the borough.<br />
You can help this process by reporting flood related issues<br />
