Jubilee operational status

We are not currently operating the Jubilee Flood Relief Channel. We will operate it to reduce the risk of flooding from the River Thames for communities in Maidenhead, Windsor and Eton, following the Jubilee Flood Relief Channel Operational Procedures.

In flood conditions we split some of the water from the River Thames into the Jubilee.

This page is only updated when we start or stop using the Jubilee. We are not able to update this page every time we increase or decrease the flow of water through the Jubilee. This is because our team prioritises issuing flood alerts and flood warnings over a large geographical area. The work is time critical, requiring 24/7 observation of river levels and flows and needs quick decisions to ensure people are warned and informed in an accurate and timely way.
