With the wet weather across Bedford Borough, the Environment Agency and Bedford Borough Council have issued flood updates for the following areas:
- Radwell Bridge, Radwell Road, has been closed due to flooding.
- Flooding is expected in Roxton due to raised water levels on the River Great Ouse.
Sections of the river from Roxton to Newport Pagnell are likely to be affected for a few days.
Motorists are advised to:
- Avoid low lying footpaths near watercourses.
- Plan driving routes to avoid low lying roads near rivers as they may be flooded.
- Take care when driving through flood water. It can be deeper than you think.
