That’s below the level where this path usually starts to flood.
This flood line starts from years of this gauge’s history — the level the river only tops a few days a year. Reports of a flooded or passable day will tune it to the path itself.
About this path
The shared-use towpath along the lower Cam from Midsummer Common past Stourbridge Common towards Fen Ditton — the rowing-coach and commuter route out of Cambridge. The adjoining commons are the Cam's urban floodplain: the reach below Jesus Lock has flooded repeatedly, with boathouses inundated in the 2000–02 floods.
