You’ll have seen the news about Storm Christoph, which looks set to batter the UK this week.
In Wrexham, we’re expecting very heavy rain – possibly over a short period of time – and an ‘amber’ weather warning is in place over the next few days.
Councillor David A Bithell, Lead Member for Environment and Transport, says:
“The council’s environment teams are out in the county borough checking hotspot areas and stretches of road that tend to flood, and doing everything we can to prepare.
“We can’t know exactly how much Wrexham will be affected by the storm, but our teams are ready to respond to any local problems it causes.
“It’s important that everyone stays safe and takes extra care over the coming days during the adverse weather.”
