From Monday 20th February, Environment Agency Field Teams will be onsite at Clifton, York, undertaking vegetation clearance work on the Sustrans Route 65 cycle path from the allotment track to the top end of Clifton Ings, in preparation of C of Y works later this year.

This work will take approximately one week. The path will remain open during this time, with signage in place alerting people to the work. Please be mindful of the work taking place, and follow any instructions given by staff on site.

Over the last few weeks, we have been getting reports of people ignoring signs and breaking into the fenced off construction area on Rawcliffe Meadows.

These areas are fenced off for the safety of the public. Breaking onto the site is dangerous and could result in injury. We ask that members of the public respect the fencing and our clear signage for their own safety and that of others.

Our community flood hub on Wellington Row has now closed its doors to the public permanently.

A big thanks to everyone who visited the Hub over the last few years to find out more about flooding and our flood defence schemes in the city.

We will continue to keep this page active whilst our work in York continues. If you have any questions or queries about any of our completed or ongoing flood defence schemes, please feel free to comment on any of our posts, or email us at:
