Tell us what happened

In Caledon the river floods come with ice, and the core of Caledon East sits in a flood plain

On March 15, 2019, six ice jams on the Humber River forced about 85 homes in Bolton to evacuate. Bolton has Caledon's only Special Policy Area for flooding, along the Humber.

Flooding in Caledon East's core was first studied in 1968; it sits in the flood plain of Centreville Creek, a Humber tributary, and in 2014 the Town's staff recommended flood-proofing new and rebuilt buildings.

Eight homes in ten in Caledon are detached houses, the highest share of anywhere we serve.

In Caledon, the Town handles roads and ditches, and a well needs a lab test after a flood

Flooding on Town roads or ditches: the Town of Caledon, on 311; after hours, the Region of Peel.
On a private well: don't drink the water after a flood until a lab test shows it's safe. Peel's advice for rural homes.
On a municipal well system in Alton, Palgrave, Caledon East, Caledon Village, Cheltenham or Inglewood: Peel Region runs it; see Peel's rural Caledon water page.
