ABOUT £1m is to be spent on efforts to stop flooding in the Flixton area.
United Utilities plan to spend the money on work to improve the sewer system in the area.
The work will increase the size of the local sewer network so that it is better able to cope with stormwater.
It hopes this will reduce the risk of flooding.
Whitelake Avenue will be closed to through traffic.
