This report documents the Study’s objectives, results and recommendations.
- Section 1 introduces the study.
- Section 2 provides some background information and a summary of available data.
- Section 3 outlines the community consultation undertaken.
- Section 4 outlines the general modelling approach and key assumptions.
- Section 5 details the model development and results for Area 1.
- Section 6 details the model development and results for Area 2.
- Section 7 details the model development and results for Area 3.
- Section 8 presents sensitivity tests of key parameters/assumptions for the developed models.
- Section 9 provides a summary of the flood damages assessment.
- Section 10 identifies key hot-spot areas from the modelling results and an initial assessment of
potential flood mitigation options.
The key output from the overland flow study comprises a series of flood maps for each study area
which are included in Appendix A. This mapping includes flood depth, velocity and hazard for the
range of design return period events considered.
