Landslide watch
Current status: Landslide watch stood down
Hi-tech monitoring equipment is located at strategic points in the town to measure ground movement and water levels. From this data the council operates a three tier warning system to inform local people during times when there is a risk of landslipping.
Level 1: Landslip watch - detailed observation of areas where monitoring has indicated a landslip is imminently possible.
Level 2: Landslip warning - informing occupants in areas where landslips are expected to occur and may affect their properties.
Level 3: Severe landslip warning - informing occupants where landslips will occur and will affect their properties.
