Strategic Flood Risk Assessment (Level 1)
The Strategic Flood Risk Assessment (SFRA) provides a comprehensive and robust evidence base on flood risk issues, using the best information available.
This supports our review of the Chelmsford Local Plan and associated Planning Policy documents.
The main sources of flood risk in Chelmsford are fluvial (rivers), sea (coastal) and surface water.
