THE impact of flooding on the Bewsey and Dallam area of Warrington has been captured on drone footage by local resident Adrian Thompson.
Longshaw Street and Hawleys Lane remains closed to traffic in both directions.
A number of flood warnings remain in place and anyone affected by the warnings is urged to keep up-to-date with the latest news on the Environment Agency website.
Residents are also reminded not to drive or walk through any flood water – this is often deeper than it looks, it may be moving fast and there could be hidden hazards underneath such as raised manhole covers, which can pose a danger.
Anyone concerned about potential flooding should sign up for free flood warnings on the Environment Agency’s website, follow them on Twitter @EnvAgencyNW for the latest information or you can call the Flood Line on 0345 988 1188.
