A BANORA Point resident fears Lake Kimberley will flood homes this week if heavy rain keeps falling.
A BANORA Point resident fears Lake Kimberley will flood homes this week if heavy rain keeps falling.
Rising water at the lake has submerged a nearby footpath and was approaching nearby houses.
Former police officer Jim Sunter, 83, said he had noticed water levels were above average since heavy rain began last week.
“I’m concerned for a lot of the local residents. Most of them are pensioners and wouldn’t fare well if the water in the lake went any higher,” Mr Sunter said.
“It doesn’t seem to be draining anywhere.”
Mr Sunter said the lake flooded nearby houses about three years ago.
“I’ve spoken to a lot of residents and they’re worried about it.
“If it keeps raining, I think it will flood,” he said.
According to the Bureau of Meteorology, Tweed Heads received 127mm of rain in the 24 hours to 9am yesterday.
Cloudy conditions and more showers are predicted for later this week.
A spokesman for the RTA, which is working on the nearby Banora Point Pacific Highway upgrade and drainage system for the lake, said the project team was monitoring the rising water levels.
“We’ve put several measures in place to ensure any impact from the heavy rainfall is minimised,” the spokesman said.
“The gates are open and working to ensure that water flows freely, there are four pumps running continuously and pumping excess water through the site and additionally, two bypass pipes have been installed.”
