Flooding Footage December 24, 2019

Short film of flooding East of Oxford on the Ox-Cam Expressway Corridor, Christmas Eve 2019

Flooding around Waterperry, Waterstock and Shabbington on 24th December 2019. These villages are in a narrow part of Oxford to Cambridge Expressway to the East of Oxford. There was substantial in many places along the Oxford to Cambridge Expressway corridor before Christmas 2019.

Before Christmas 2019 there was substantial flooding in many different areas along the Oxford - Cambridge Expressway Corridor. On Christmas eve, NEG got drone footage of a small section of flooding to the East of Oxford, on what’s known as Corridor B, sub-option B3!

In this short film you can see flooding around Waterperry, Waterstock and Shabbington.

This is just one small area affected of many. See more about flooding South of Milton Keynes here, and more images of flooding on our facebook page here.

Where do Highways England plan to put an Expressway? Where will all the new housing be developed.. and will it need to be on stilts??

We urgently need your help.

Your donations are needed now, to help us run the campaign and pay for political consultants and other professional experts to bring this campaign to the attention of Westminster as well as local politicians.

No Expressway Group believes there is no need for an Oxford-Cambridge Expressway, nor the over-inflated housing targets associated with it, and we will actively campaign against it and support other organisations with the same objectives. 

Our environment is a national asset which is critical for everyone’s health and well-being. We must not let it be destroyed.

Your donations help us to spread information about the Expressway, run and build support for the campaign:

  • £10 could pay for one roadside Correx poster

  • £15 could pay for one roadside poster on a wooden stake

  • £20 could pay for one A1 printed colour poster for our pagoda display

  • £35 could pay for 250 A5 printed leaflets for the campaign

  • £70 could pay for one pole and two panels for our travelling pagoda display

  • £150 could pay for one feather flag for our travelling pagoda

  • £180 could pay to run this website for one year

  • £300 could pay for a 3 minutes of an Expressway Story

  • £500 could pay for a 5 minutes of an Expressway Story

  • A greater or other amount could contribute to the cost of professional support for our campaign in general and in preparation for Planning Inspectorate hearings

Please note:

The No Expressway Group has a group bank account to which the Chair, Secretary and Treasurer are signatories. The group will publish accounts on noexpressway.org each year which will be audited by an accountant from outside the NEG group.

If any funds are left at the end of the campaign, these will be donated equally between RSPB and BBOWT.
