Q. All of the water from this site will go to Water Lane which already floods. Won't this make it worse?

A. This will not affect Water Lane. The Environment Agency will make us take into account a one in a hundred years flooding event and will ask us to take climate change into account.

Q. But Water Lane floods already! This will make it worse.

A. We don’t have to do anything about existing flooding, we mustn't make it worse.
