About the scheme

The Stubbing Holme Road scheme will protect 33 properties from flood risk. This is a separate project from the main Hebden Bridge scheme.

The area faces flooding from the River Calder and the Rochdale Canal. Located upstream of Hebden Bridge, the project also covers Colden Clough. This tributary joins the River Calder at the Longstaff Court cul-de-sac.

 

Proposed works

The scheme includes the following flood defense improvements:

  • Raise and strengthen walls along Stubbing Holme Road. This covers the area between Holme Road Bridge and the footbridge.
  • Strengthen and install new walls along the Rochdale Canal.
  • Install flood resilience measures for riverside properties.

Working with the community

The Environment Agency meets regularly with local partners, councillors, and community leaders to share project updates. We have formed a Key Stakeholder Group to ensure local voices are heard.

Future consultations

As the scheme's design progresses, we will hold more meetings. These sessions will allow us to discuss specific proposals with residents and businesses directly affected by the work.
