Every time we have rain the road gets like this. The drainage channels in the kerb are completely silted up and so the rain can't drain away. We have had council operatives dig a shovel of mud out of them before, but that does not solve the problem, the whole system needs cleaning out.

  • How can this be "Case Closed" until the drains have been cleaned "as part of the next schedule of works" and the problem does not re-occur.

    1 hour of rain and this is the result. It can be seen from the picture of the culvert that there is no flow of water down it, or either of the other two culverts, As can be seen from the picture the water is encroaching my land up the pathway.
