The flood scheme map on site shows improvements to the river embankments from this point for nearly 2km downstream. Here, the former Park & Ride gravel carpark is being turned into a "Community Recreation Area" at the same time as the existing embankment is being rebuilt further away from the river to create wetland habitat.
