Great news, we’ve had a look at the issue and we have now passed to our Highways Officers for the team to assess what can be done to resolve the matter. We’ll let you know when the assessment has taken place.

The County has received a large amount of rainfall in a short space of time and as such we are having to prioritise flooding sites which pose a risk to life or significant risk of internal flooding. It’s worth noting that at times of extreme weather even well-maintained drains can become overwhelmed and at the moment gullies may not be able to drain away into watercourses and sewers which are full or backing up. Should you feel your property is at risk your first action should be to contact the emergency services who will assess the situation and act accordingly. Work to clear the highway drainage system at the location is planned to take place in due course. If the problem happens again but in less extreme conditions then please report this to us and we will investigate the issue again. Rest assured that we will be inspecting highway drains and gullies in affected areas in the coming weeks once the emergency response is over. Thank you for reporting this matter.
