Tenbury flooding alleviation scheme
It's a Worcestershire town that's always been in the firing line when the county starts to flood...
But now, traders in Tenbury are celebrating - as work is about to start on a flooding alleviation scheme to protect businesses in Market Street.
Around 拢100,000 is going to be spent on installing a special underground 'sump', which will stop the street from being flooded, by pumping surface water back towards the River Teme.
It won't be the ultimate solution - a larger 拢5 million pound flood defence scheme for the town is still being worked on - but it's a step in the right direction.
