73. Saving Toddbrook Reservoir Dam from Collapse and Flooding Whaley Bridge!

With a disaster imminent, hundreds raced, intent on saving Toddbrook Reservoir Dam from collapse and flooding Whaley Bridge, including engineers, the armed forces, Police, Fire Service, Canal & River Trust, Environment Agency and hundreds of local volunteers.

On the 1st of August 2019, following 48-hours of unprecedented rainfall, the dam at Toddbrook Reservoir was in danger of bursting as the concrete spillway began collapsing under a torrent of floodwater.

Many thanks to Les Eckersley, David Jones, and Steve Phillips for allowing the use of their video footage. Also, special thanks to the Canal and River Trust, and Kier for their help and information which assisted in the production of this episode.
