Drains not taking rain water

Reported via desktop in the Blocked drain category anonymously at 14:11, Sun 23 October 2022

Sent to Lincolnshire County Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 434485.

We had three hours of rain and the corner outside numbers 17 / 19 / and 21 (the entire road) Mountbatten Avenue was flooded. This has been reported last time we had a downpour but nothing has been done. Looking at all drain in the area and none was taking any water. All water was just standing. This is now happening every time we have heavy rain.
