River levels are rising at the Whitewater Bridge river gauge as a result of persistent rainfall. Consequently, flooding of roads and farmland is possible from 02:30 tomorrow, 24/02/25.
Areas most at risk are low-lying agricultural land and roads around Mansfield, the Sherwood Forest Caravan Park at Clipstone, Edwinstowe, Ollerton, Whitewater Lane at Whitewater Bridge and West Drayton.
Further rainfall is forecast over the next 24 hours. We expect river levels to remain high until the evening.
We are closely monitoring the situation.
Please avoid using low-lying footpaths near local watercourses and plan driving routes to avoid low-lying roads near rivers, which may be flooded.
To check the status of road closures online, please visit the One Network live map.
This message will be updated by 09:00 tomorrow morning, 24/02/25, or as the situation changes.
