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 Severn Way along the east bank past Worcester Racecourse, linking the city centre to Barbourne and the Kepax Bridge. Well used by walkers, runners and commuters. The whole racecourse floodplain goes under several times in a wet winter — six times in 2023–24 — submerging the path for days at a time.
