FloodAhead
Not claimedCheck what lies ahead before you set off
By Daniel Miara · TravelWhy we expect it: Combining Environment Agency flood warnings and National Highways closures into one route view makes this a practical, well-explained travel companion.
In short
FloodAhead checks a driving route against current Environment Agency flood warning areas and National Highways road closure and restriction data, showing both in one route-focused view. It is aimed at drivers planning a journey who want to compare routes and see where each warning or road event falls along the way. It does not label routes as safe, and it notes when source data is missing or out of date.
Summary by Debuts, based on the App Store listing.About
Check what lies ahead before you set off.
FloodAhead helps you check a driving route against current flood warnings and reported road closures. It detects where your selected route crosses Environment Agency flood warning areas and combines this with supported road closure and restriction information from National Highways.
Instead of checking a flood map and road information separately, FloodAhead brings both into one route-focused view.
CHECK YOUR ROUTE
Choose a destination and see whether your route crosses any current flood warning areas or reported road events.
COMPARE ALTERNATIVE ROUTES
Compare available routes using detected flood warnings, reported road closures and restrictions, and estimated journey time.
FloodAhead does not label a route as “safe”. It gives you clear information about what has been detected so you can make your own travel decision.
SEE WHAT AFFECTS YOUR JOURNEY
For each detected warning or road event you can see:
• the type of warning or restriction • where it appears along your journey • the distance from the start of your route • how much of the route is affected • the official data source
