This debrief report provides information as to the build-up and response to the flooding that occurred between January and February 2021. The aim of this report is to collate the information gathered from partner agencies, Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead (RBWM) staff and the communities affected in relation to the Councils response in order to identify good practice and areas for improvement. Recommendations have been made in order to improve the response for any future incidents that may occur, accepting that no flood event is the same.

A campaign is underway in the leafy historic Thameside village of Datchet to save a 170-year-old landmark tree. Angry residents and Borough and Parish councillors are objecting to a decision by planning officers at the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead Council to allow this Wellingtonia (Sequoiadendron Giganteum Wellingtonia) to be felled. The tree, one of the tallest and oldest in Datchet and an important part of village heritage, is in the protected Conservation Area and is listed on the Woodland Trust Ancient Tree Inventory. It is implicated in subsidence at a neighbouring building but other solutions are available which would allow the tree to be kept and the building stabilised.

From October to December 2020 our project team of engineers and construction experts worked extremely hard to complete the first phase of works as planned. This work included removing damaged concrete from around the weir and placing new sheet piling. During this phase of the repair works we were unable to operate the Jubilee River. Now that the first phase is complete we are able to safely operate the Jubilee River. The amount of flow we pass down the Jubilee River is determined by the level of flood risk to people and property and the safety of the weir and railway viaduct.
