Recovery work is ongoing across Wrexham after the recent flooding.
In a joint statement Council Leader Mark Pritchard and Ian Bancroft, Chief Executive of Wrexham Council, said: “Recovery work is underway across Wrexham, as the county borough looks to get back on its feet following recent floods.”
“Torrential rain and unprecedented river levels created issues in many areas, including road closures, houses being flooded and some residents even being evacuated from their homes.”
“There was a declared emergency (a ‘critical and major incident’) at both Bangor-on-Dee, and in the Lower Dee Valley (affecting properties in the Holt area), as well as issues in other known hot-spots including New Broughton, Rossett, Pontfadog and Brymbo, amongst many other isolated incidents.”
