It's not just the volume of water on the move that would worry me; it's what might be in it.

The surface drainage and sewerage system is overloaded to the point where manhole covers are forced off and the contents enter into the mix.

The opening shots of the video above shows that the flooding abuts a sewerage treatment plant.

It's possible that there are measures that can be taken to prevent contamination of the flood water but I wouldn't put money on it.
