More than £35m is to be spent on flood defence schemes in Devon.
New £23m flood defences in Exeter would protect more than 2,000 homes and businesses, the government said.
A further £8.6m is to be spent on a beach management scheme for Dawlish Warren and Exmouth in a bid to reduce the flood risk to 2880 properties, plus protect the main national rail line.
Nearly £3.75m would also be spent on a Devon and Cornwall Floods Recovery 2012 project, the government added.
