Opportunity overview
Sixteen homes at the Cherrybrook Close scheme in Hope-Under-Dinmore, Herefordshire, have suffered significant flooding in recent years. There is a brook that runs through the middle of the scheme behind the houses that front onto the main road. The scheme is located at the end of a long road through Hope-Under-Dinmore within the local authority of Herefordshire Council. The homes are in an area where water has historically gravitated towards when there has been sustained and heavy rainfall before the water makes its way into the brook. The water travels from the south from higher ground and has impacted internally the 16 homes that are closest to the main road; these being 1-6, 9-10 and 31-38 Cherrybrook Close. The properties to the rear of the scheme are on higher ground and so have not flooded internally up to this point. The most recent floods in November 2024 prompted a full review of the flood strategy for this scheme and more in-depth discussions with Herefordshire Council about the wider impact of flooding on the area due to factors outside of Stonewater’s control/ownership/responsibility. Stonewater have been reviewing localised flood defence options and have settled on a product that provides protection to each home that has flooded internally in the past. The specifications are as follows: - Low maintenance flood defence fence that is a minimum of 900mm high and would be guaranteed to keep out flood waters up to 900mm in height (seepage leakage rate must be declared) - The fence is to be installed around the boundary of each property impacted by flooding - There needs to be removable access panels for the driveways. These needs to be of a construction that residents can easily remove/slot in as required and that don’t require machinery or contractors for day-to-day operation - Circa 500 linear meters of fencing is expected to be required to protect the properties at highest risk - Circa 15 removable driveway panels are required for access to the properties to be protected by the fencing To view this notice, please click here: https://www.delta-esourcing.com/delta/viewNotice.html?noticeId=984654694
