Aegaea has completed a Strategic Flood Risk Assessment (SFRA) for Mid Sussex District Council (MSDC), assisting the local authority in developing sustainable, climate-resilient development planning.

The SFRA serves as an essential planning tool, offering detailed flood risk understanding across the council’s area and supporting evidence-based decisions aligned with national planning policy. The assessment ensures future development occurs in appropriate locations while accounting for current and future flood risks.

“This work will support Mid Sussex District Council in preparing a Local Plan that is informed, resilient, and responsive to the challenges of a changing climate.”
