The rain is expected to cause dangerous river conditions and significant flooding and is only the second time ever, the MetService has issued a red warning.
A1077 to be temporarily closed for South Ferriby flood defence work
Road closure will allow installation of flood gate.
From: Construction of flood defences in South Ferriby will see A1077 closed for 7 days
As part of the Environment Agency’s £12m flood defence works in South Ferriby, the A1077 will be closed for 7 days from 13 February 2021.
This will allow the Environment Agency to install a flood gate, which will reduce flood risk to the village. Traffic from Barton-upon-Humber to Winteringham and villages west of Winteringham will need to follow the diversion route via the A15, A18 and via Scunthorpe.
Travellers are advised to plan ahead to help minimise disruption to their journeys during the week.
