Our News

WATERSPLASH

We are aware that with the recent higher water level at the Watersplash (after heavy overnight rain) that some vehicles were unable to drive into Brookley Road yesterday.

Therefore, the decision has been made that for the eight weeks that Brookley Road is closed, (at the Tesco Express end of the road), the water will run underneath the road.

This is to ensure that access always remains available via the Watersplash and any rainfall does not restrict vehicular access.

Once the road is fully re-opened, we will arrange for the water to run over the road in the usual way for the Summer.

Thank you for your understanding

Heather Lawrence

Flood Alleviation

The Parish Council have been working with various bodies to achieve flood reduction by identifying watercourses and drains that are particularly prone to blockage so that their clearance can be prioritised. In low lying areas such as Brockenhurst it is particularly important that watercourses and drains are actively managed, especially during periods of prolonged wet weather.

Please see the Flooding webpage for more information.

To report a faulty or blocked watercourse please phone the Parish Clerk on 622829 or New Forest District Council on 023 8028 5000.

Please visit the Hampshire County Council Flood Risk Management Guide for information and guidance for landowners.
