Loddon Shire Council Flood History
The Loddon Shire is located on a flood plain and is therefore subject to flooding from time to time, while engineering strategies have been implemented within some towns to reduce the impact of flooding.
Flooding throughout the Loddon river district ischaracterised by large expanses of slow moving water, and due to the extremely flat terrain even minor flooding can inundate areas within the region.
