flooding occurred in many locations in the united kingdom in the autumn/winter of 2000. One of the worst affected areas was Robertsbridge, in East Sussex, where over that winter, some properties were flooded up to eight times following those events, the environment agency targeted defences for this high-risk township as one of its high priority projects to‘fast-track’to implementation.studies started in January 2001, which recommended a stand-alone scheme that would project the township against the 1% probability flood. Project development progressed on a‘fast-track’basis to allow construction to start in September 2002 with completion planned in the summary of 2003.project development and implementation is always an obstacle course but the‘fast-track’approach magnifies the obstacle and introduces new ones. This paper describes experience from the Robertsbridge flood allevation scheme, with particular reference to some of the problems encountered, both technical and procedural
