Risk of flooding closes NSC as river levels rise

National Sports Centre shuts as a precaution

The National Sports Centre has closed for the rest of the day, due to the risk of flooding.

River levels are reported to be rising and the closure is a precaution at this stage.

There's a high volume of water in the rivers Dhoo and Glass.

The NSC was badly damaged by severe flooding in December 2015, with part of it shut for a number of months afterwards.
