Witney Flood Group
Welcome to our new website!
Here you can see the latest updates on our activities and progress to date as we continue our work to reduce flood risk to Witney
Working for You and for Witney
Our Demands
Proper Maintenance of the river and ordinary watercourses – silt, fallen trees, obstructions
Witney Bridge may have to be Redesigned or Rebuilt – it acts as a dam during flooding conditions
Other Land Adjustments, such as the footpath across Langel Common, may be acting as a dam
River Level Gauges – now in key locations to properly assess trends, driven by facts
An Attenuation Scheme for Witney – Between Worsham and Crawley, and for Hailey Road drain
Joined Up thinking and Teamwork – working together in unison will get us far closer to solutions
Help Needed
