Housing Site Flooded – 27-28 Feb 2010

Posted by the WCRA Editor on March - 1 - 2010 with 0 Comment

Like all residents in the area, you probably experienced a degree of localised flooding following the very heavy rains over the weekend of 27-28 Feb 2010.

For example, several of the back-gardens in Moor Lane were once again swamped as the ground was already saturated and the local drainage could not cope.

Interestingly, the proposed housing site was also somewhat overcome as you can see from the pictures below:

P1010108

P1010107

So this begs the question of where will all this water go when there are hundreds of houses on this site?

Answer that, Woking Borough Council.
