@Merry_Meredith @HenryDimbleby If you overlay the inundation map for projected sea level rises, that would have a radical effect on that map.

This discharge from the M6 near Wigan enters the Leeds/Liverpool canal. Highway runoff should never discharge to canals because all the contaminated sediment & dissolved toxins accumulate around the discharge point, poisoning the local environment.
