The Environment Agency and partners are working together to develop a flood alleviation scheme to reduce flood risk to properties, transport links and infrastructure in Oxford. In addition, the scheme aims to safeguard Oxford’s reputation as a thriving commercial centre and create and maintain recreational and environmental opportunities.

Early investigations confirmed that a flood relief channel would reduce flood risk in Oxford. The Environment Agency have therefore developed a series of channel options, based on their findings and results of early public engagement about a potential scheme and what stakeholders would want.

They would like to hear your views on the options to help them identify the final route. Please click here to see the document and engage with the Environment Agency.
