Flood warning lifted as Peterborough road re-opens to traffic - but more rain is on the way
The Environment Agency (EA) has lifted the flood warning for North Bank in Peterborough - and the road is now open to all traffic.
Due to the flood warning, North Bank - which runs alongside the River Nene - was closed from 7pm on January 16 between Northey Road (Bedford Cottages) and North Side (Dog in a Doublet) until further notice.
Today (January 22) it has been lifted and the road has re-opened.
However, Peterborough City Council says that with heavy rain forecast over the coming days, “a new flood warning may be issued”.
The Met Office forecasts more potential rain across the area on Friday, with dry weather expected on Saturday and a 40% chance of rain on Sunday and Monday.
