What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Newport City Council met with officials to discuss flood scheme modelling provided by Arup for Station Road. The Council stated it could not approve a complete bund along Monksditch because it would redirect water toward The Forge and Barn Farm. Arup's report indicated that water cannot be stopped from traveling down Station Road as it is a flood path. The Council also discussed work related to Redrow’s development and agreed to donate £500 to Glan Llyn Primary School.
