Two drains blocked. Third running free.

Reported via mobile in the Blocked drain category by Fixar Rhodes at 09:09, Wed 1 March 2023

Sent to Lincolnshire County Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 449492.

On main road. Ds Smith side. First two drains do not shift water. Third drain does, so this is does not relate to major rainfall, just blocked drains due to lack of maintenance.

  • Why have we closed this report? We cleaned this areas drains in the last year and our last inspection showed that they are working well. It’s worth noting though that at times of extreme weather even well-maintained drains like these can be overwhelmed. If the problem happens again but in less extreme conditions then please report this to us and we will investigate the issue again. Thank you for reporting this matter.

  • There are about 5 blocked drains in this vicinity that have never worked efficiently in the times I've been driving past them for years. So either they aren't being cleaned or an effective job is not being carried out.
