The end of August could spell trouble
Work is under way on flood defence plans for land and property at Glasson near Lancaster, where a port sea gate is broken and high tides are expected in the next few weeks, authorities have said.
However, the port commission has rejected the claims, defended its port record, its land and property plans, its governance structure, public consultation and relationships. Regarding the broken sea gate, a new joint statement has been released by the Environment Agency with Lancaster Port Commission and Lancaster City Council.
"High tides are also expected at the end of August and beginning of September. The Environment Agency is working with Lancaster Port Commission on plans for temporary work to the sea gate to manage flood risk during these high tides. The plan is to ensure that the temporary work gives the same level of flood protection as usually provided by the closed sea gate. We will publish a further update with more information about this nearer the time.
