Today I met with the Letcombe Brook Project Officer and Emergency Planning Officer from the Vale to discuss and survey some of the suggested projects we can take forward to potentially try and alleviate future flooding. We visited the Mill in Wantage aswell as several sites in Grove to see what can be done with help and advice from the Environment Agency and local councils.
It is clear that de-silting the brook at several places should help with the flow and also proper maintenance of the balancing ponds in Grove need attention. These suggestions will be taken forward and hopefully programmed into future work in progress. We met some residents at Kingfishers who are still experiencing problems so we hope that we can help some local schemes to go ahead.
