Hackbridge
Hackbridge is located in the London Borough of Sutton on the upper catchment of the river Wandle. Flood risk is from the river and land. Flooding could occur quickly and with little warning.
Flood frequency and extent could increase with climate change. Flooding from sewers and from the land could also increase.
A central amenity space, the ‘village blue/green’, and naturalised river edge could provide areas for outdoor play that double as flood storage during a storm.
Development is built around courtyards for rain and play provide rainwater storage and collection.
