FAIR has engaged with local residents and the community of Norton Canes to improve community resilience to flood risks, particularly high flows and runoff associated with the Norton Brook, and surface water flooding across the village. This community page displays the real-time monitoring and trash screen camera images installed by FAIR on the Norton Brook, information from a new weather station installed at Norton Canes Primary School and information from the pilot flood forecasting system. 

For more information on the co-designed community flood risk schemes undertaken by FAIR, including a rain garden at Norton Canes Community Library and slowing the flow at Norton Canes High School, please see the Community News section below.
