    Photo added of pavement crack. The water is emerging from the ground at reasonable pressure, it doesn't appear to be the result of any drainage run-off

  • Water is continuing to run from the crack in the pavement and from the manhole cover. This happens whenever it rains, and it also happened when it snowed at the weekend (03.12.2023).

  • This is only getting worse. The manhole cover is now further raised from the ground, which is dangerous for pedestrians and makes it very difficult for wheelchair users as there is a hazard in the middle of the pavement, with gushing water when it is raining.

  • We have an update. Our highways team have issued this work out to one of their delivery gangs. We’ll let you know when the job is complete.
