Good advice ahead of winter …

Calling all owners of private culverts on their land!

The summer months are an excellent time of the year to inspect private watercourses and ensure they remain well-maintained. Action now could make a big difference in the winter months ahead.

During Storm Bert in November 2024, around 64% of impacted culverts were privately-owned. These privately-owned assets accounted for approximately 20% of the total number of impacted properties during the storm event.

Here are some important activities that you can undertake:

• Check and clear blockages – by removing fallen branches, leaves, debris and silt that could obstruct water flow.
• Maintain vegetation – by cutting back overgrown plants that might restrict water flow.
• Dispose of waste properly – never dump household or garden waste into watercourses, as they could cause blockages.
• Inspect culverts regularly – to ensure they are not blocked, collapsed or eroded.
• Report major issues – if you have concerns regarding obstructions affecting a watercourse, you should inform the Council using its ‘Report It’ function online: https://orlo.uk/JF6Y3
