"Invisible barriers" describes how the Environment Agency provided a cost-effective defence system for Bewdley without spoiling its riverside setting. The final article, "Broad horizons" describes how PFI has been applied to flood defences in the Norfolk Broads with the restoration and management of the network of rivers and canals.
