Victoria Speaks to Environment Agency about Lincolnshire Flooding

I have spoken to the Environment Agency about flooding today in Lincolnshire. They have given me assurances that the Horncastle Flood Alleviation Scheme has been activated and is working. They also confirmed they have teams on the ground closely monitoring the situation and, where safe, clearing blockages and screens.

I would encourage you to stay up-to-date with the latest information by:

• Signing up for free updates by calling Floodline on 0345 988 1188.
