Several sites for a large new hub airport have been suggested and put aside.

Flooding to a considerable depth would take place in a period of less than an hour. All basements within the danger area would be flooded, with widespread cessation of electricity supply and contamination from released sewage. The water-level would be ten feet (more than three metres) above ground-level in the worst affected areas. There would be massive damage to

Starting upstream, the provision of new reservoirs and designated flood plains would greatly restore general confidence and also enhance London’s water-supply.
