We have also updated our coastal and estuary modelling in Ipswich. This includes the new barrier and it supersedes the modelling used in the SFRA and SPD. The
existing SFRA refers to PPS25 which has now been replaced by the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) 2018 and is no longer based on the most up to date evidence. The SFRA suggests a framework for safe development which is detailed in the Flood Risk SPD (September 2013). We would suggest that the SPD could also be updated following the production of a revised SFRA.
