Floods cause ‘major incident’ in Northamptonshire

The county’s fire service said flood sirens were sounded in the morning at Billing Aquadrome and agencies assisted the management of the park to evacuate the site.

“However, some people remain at the location, which is cut off from access, and Northamptonshire Fire and Rescue Service expect to be carrying out boat rescues for the rest of the day,” it said in a statement.

“A multi-agency response involving fire, police, North Northamptonshire and West Northamptonshire councils, the Environment Agency and local NHS partners has been put together to ensure a joint response is in place to protect residents – with the potential for further severe weather expected later this week as well,” it added.
