• Drainage systems may also fail to cope in urban or built-up settings.
ACTIONS TO TAKE
• Avoid crossing flooded rivers and swollen streams whether on foot or in a vehicle.
• Avoid driving on a road covered by water especially at night when it is more difficult to recognize flood dangers.
• The public is advised to stay away from swollen rivers and not to drive through floodwaters as just 30cm of flowing water is enough to sweep away a vehicle.
• Clearance of waterways and drainages, ahead of time, helps reduce the impacts of heavy rains.
• Be Weather-ready; always plan with the weather in mind.
