Flood zones, the coast and protected nature
Flood zones
Part of St. Andrew's Square is in Flood Zone 2 (rivers). That is the Environment Agency’s flood map for planning, which shows land that could flood from rivers or the sea, ignoring the benefits of any existing flood defences.
Locations in flood zone 2 have a medium probability of flooding.
This means, in any year, land has:
- between a 1% and 0.1% (between 1 in 100 and 1 in 1,000) chance of flooding from rivers
- between a 0.5% and 0.1% (between 1 in 200 and 1 in 1,000) chance of flooding from the sea.
Flood zone 2 developments need a flood risk assessment as part of their planning application.
