Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Lagoon building, near Hull, East Riding of Yorkshire, England.
Work is being done here to build one of a series of rainwater storage lagoons on former farm land at Willerby Carrs. They form part of the Willerby and Derringham Flood Alleviation Scheme. It is among schemes to reduce the risk of flooding in the Derringham area of Hull and parts of Willerby, following the extensive floods of summer 2007.


The lagoons will resemble flat pasture and most of the time will remain dry, only to be filled during severe wet weather. The £14.4m scheme aims to protect around 8,000 homes, and is due for completion in autumn 2015.
