Flooding

As much as anywhere else, flooding affects the North East of Scotland.

Important information if you suffer from flooding

Flooding Bulletins

Anyone can be affected, whether through:

  • disruption to travel when rivers burst their banks;
  • direct flooding from localised flood water;
  • coastal flooding;
  • or even flooding caused by overflowing drains.

Responsibility for flooding issues in the North East is shared between a number of different organisations. These bodies come together in the North East Scotland Flood Liaison and Advice Group (NESFLAG):

  • to share information and experience from a wide range of disciplines
  • to share knowledge and understanding of flooding issues
  • to ensure a coordinated approach to the prevention of flooding.
