Council assessing long-term solutions to resolve flooding at Orford Jubilee Hub

0

LONG-term solutions are being assessed in a bid to resolve ongoing flooding issues at Orford Jubilee Hub.

Recent heavy rains have again caused major flooding at the showpiece LiveWire Hub opened by the Queen in 2012, impacting car parking for users.

Locals now refer to the flood waters as “the great lake”

Flooding issues have been an ongoing issue ever since the facility opened.

Even extensive highway resurfacing works last year failed to resolve the problems.

A Warrington Borough Council spokesperson said: “We know that flooding at Orford Jubilee Neighbourhood Hub remains a persistent issue when there are periods of heavy rainfall. We are assessing long-term solutions to address the problem.”
