GOV.UK provides a service to check the long term flood risk for an area in England. You can use this service to find out:
- the long term flood risk for an area in England
- how climate change might increase the chance of flooding in an area
- the possible causes of flooding
- how to manage flood risk
The Council cannot provide sandbags. If your home is at a high risk of flooding, for example as a result of being in close proximity to a watercourse, we recommend you get sandbags from a builders' merchant as a precaution.

We are responsible for drainage of most roads in Luton, however the Highways Agency is responsible for drainage on the M1. You can report a problem on the motorway on the Highways England website. There are also some roads which are the responsibility of developers or private owners, drainage issues on these roads are likely to be the owner’s responsibility.
