The Jubilee River is a hydraulic channel in southern England. It is 11.6 km (7.2 mi) long and is on average 45 metres (148 feet) wide. It was constructed in the late 1990s and early 2000s to take overflow from the River Thames and so alleviate flooding to areas in and around the towns of Maidenhead, Windsor, and Eton in the counties of Berkshire and Buckinghamshire. It achieves this by taking water from the left (at this point eastern) bank of the Thames upstream of Boulter's Lock near Maidenhead and returning it via the north bank downstream of Eton. Although successful in its stated aims, residents of villages downstream, such as Wraysbury, claim it has increased flooding in those locations.

  • De Jubilee is een hydraulisch kanaal in het zuiden van Engeland, preciezer in de graafschappen Berkshire en Buckinghamshire. Het is 11,6 kilometer lang en is gemiddeld 45 meter wijd. Het kanaal werd eind jaren '90, begin jaren 2000 gebouwd om de Theems te ontzien van het teveel aan water en daarmee overstromingen nabij Maidenhead, Windsor en Eton te voorkomen. Dit wordt gerealiseerd door water stroomopwaarts van Maidenhead af te voeren en het stroomafwaarts van Eton weer terug te brengen. (nl)
  • Der Jubilee River ist ein 11,6 km langer Kanal in Südengland, der in den späten 1990er Jahren und frühen 2000ern gebaut wurde, um Überflutungen bestimmter Bereiche bei Hochwasser der Themse zu verhindern. Der Kanal schützt unter anderem Maidenhead, Windsor und Eton in den Grafschaften Berkshire und Buckinghamshire. Dies wird erreicht, indem der Wasserüberschuss der Themse durch den Kanal oberhalb von Boulter's Lock in der Nähe von Maidenhead abgezweigt wird und erst unterhalb von Eton dem Fluss wieder zugeführt wird.
