The Environment Agency is keen to show residents the plans for a scheme that will provide enhanced flood protection to 105 properties in the Clifton Street area.
Residents can see the proposed plans and find out what the works will mean for them at a drop-in session on Friday 12th July between 3-7pm at the Wigan Road Methodist Church, on the corner of Clifton Street, WN7 5AH.
Once the plans are agreed work is due to begin in the Spring of 2014. This phase is part of wider government investment in flood protection for West and East Leigh that also involves work to refurbish Bedford Pumping Station, which was built in 1964.
When completed the work in Leigh will provide enhanced flood protection to 105 properties and maintain the standard of protection to 670 properties, through the building and refurbishment of flood defences.
For more information on the drop-in contact Raymond Puddephatt on 01925 542298.
