Portsmouth City Council’s overall aim is to reduce the risks to people and property from flooding. When drawing up plans or considering applications for development, we try to direct development to sites at lower risk of flooding. To be able to do this, we need to know as much as possible about the flooding risks in the city.
We have carried out several assessments, listed below. All assessments and reports, along with relevant annexes and maps, can be downloaded in PDF format.
For further information on the work we are doing in the city email drainageteam@portsmouthcc.gov.uk, phone 023 9284 1588 or contact the coastal and drainage team at Portsmouth City Council, Civic Offices, Guildhall Square, Portsmouth, PO1 2NE.
