Aunsby Rd, Swarby outside Greenways
Reported via mobile in the Standing water covering more than half the road category anonymously at 11:56, Fri 23 December 2022
Sent to Lincolnshire County Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 440801.
Blocked drains causing flooding of road. This has been reported three times now and each time I just get response that drains will be cleared in routine clearance. Either hasn’t been done since Feb 22 or it requires more regular cleaning than once a year as it is a recurring issue every time we have a period of constant rainfall. Thanks.

Please note that the contract road sweeper which visited Swarby this morning was observed just sweeping the main road through the village and did not go round the green and sweep this area of road. Hence why the drains are blocked here as they are not being regularly cleared. It now requires more than a road sweeper to unblock it. Thanks

According to the operative who visited the site today, the drains are collapsed in two places, and so will need to be replaced. The road will keep flooding until this work is carried out.
