The Upper Garnock Valley Flood Protection Scheme
![Page 7: Add Title Here · A study looked at the urban areas of Kilbirnie, ... • Detailed numerical and physical modelling undertaken to develop scheme • Extensive surveys taken to inform](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051510/5ffe248309749d22e3637b8d/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
An area of suitable ground upstream of Kilbirnie has the potential to attenuate greater volume of flood water.
This will reduce peak flood flows in the downstream reaches of the River Garnock and reduce flood risk
