Bangalow Flood Study

Submissions close Sunday 15 September.

Brown water flooding cars and yards of old homes

This consultation has closed.

Feedback and information from the community is now being reviewed and analysed.

The Bangalow Flood Study will investigate how and where floods, especially those in 2022, impacted the town and nearby areas.

The study will be a technical analysis of flood behaviour, with the information to be used for a range of things including flood risk management and land-use planning for existing and future development.

We asked Bangalow residents about their experiences with flooding. For example:

Flooding in streets, parks, across roads, bridges, homes and yards etc
How high the water was
How fast it was moving
Was flooding caused by heavy rain, stormwater drainage or the creek.

We are hoping that people may also have information or photos of flooding in Bangalow that they can share to visually support the technical work the consultant is doing.

All information provided will be confidential.

Thanks to Team Piccabeen and residents who have given us permission to use these photos.
