Reported via mobile in the Flowing water, no risk to life or property category anonymously at 16:30, Sun 18 February 2024
Sent to Lincolnshire County Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 494509.
The water appears to begin at Whitton Park playground and flow downhill from there. The water flows over a number of drains, suggesting a blockage underground. This causes surface water on the road and flooding on some areas of pavement. It occurs even when there has not been prolonged heavy rainfall.

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.
State changed to: No further action
