We recently had a new junction installed where the controller was to be
located in a very similar way in that it was located in a flood plain and
was required to be raised at least 1m above the surrounding area.
In this instance we were lucky to have an area of land available adjacent to
the river where some sympathetic landscaping was carried out that resulted
in a gentle mound being constructed where the controller now sits.
If you have the land this is the best way, as the original idea was to
construct a concrete plinth with a long ramp and protection barriers around
it. This proposal on the submitted drawings did not look good at all.
The developers did not do too much investigation into alternatives and I
don't know what else can be done without compromising on H&S.

Subject: [TCUG] Raised controllers
I have a controller that is to be located in an area that is prone to
flooding. To site the controller without raising it would mean that it would
need to be located at least 200 metres from the junction.
Does anyone have any innovative ideas for raising controllers, other than a
raised plinth? I would need to raise the controller about 1 metre above
ground level.
