Multiple flood alerts remain in place across Wiltshire following heavy rainfall overnight.

Rain continued to fall during the morning of Monday, October 14, creating slow conditions on major roads, like the M4.

The rainfall also means several flood warnings remain in place for areas near rivers that could be at risk of bursting.

The Environment Agency has warned residents that flooding is possible in the Mid Bristol Avon area from 6am onwards, although property flooding is not expected.

It is forecast that flooding will impact locations near the Bristol Avon, and Semington Brook, with low lying land and roads expected to be most affected, particularly between Melksham and Bathford.

An alert is also in place for the Upper Bristol Avon area, where flooding is predicted to hit low lying areas like Tetbury, Badminton, Brook End at Luckington, Corsham, Lacock, and the road at Reybridge.

Finally, the risk of flooding in low lying areas around the River Thames and its small tributaries from Calcutt to Lechlade, north of Swindon, remains.

A spokesperson added: “We are closely monitoring the situation and will issue further flood alerts or warnings if necessary.

“Drier conditions are expected until early next week and the situation should continue to improve.

“Please monitor local water levels and weather conditions and avoid walking, cycling or driving through flood water.”
