A number of roads in West Northamptonshire remain closed, due to ongoing flooding issues caused by Storm Bert.

Massive rainfall on Sunday (November 24) caused flooding “bigger than the floods of 1998”, which has led to ongoing chaos two days later.

On Monday (November 25), many residents had to be evacuated from the homes, including at Billing Aquadrome, a major incident was declared by authorities, trains were unable to run through Northampton Railway Station and are still unable to run, and many roads were closed due to standing flood water, which some vehicles got stranded in.
