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 />
