Pond water release outlet blocked
Reported via desktop in the Blocked drain category anonymously at 11:16, Mon 26 February 2024
Sent to Lincolnshire County Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 496100.
The outlet for the village pond appears to be blocked which is causing the pond to overflow across the road and compromises the access to two properties - numbers 26 and 17 Hale Road, Helpringham. These properties belong to people with mobility issues so a prompt resolution would be greatly appreciated.
This will be a reoccurring problems whilst we continue to have high rainfall.
The location of the outlet is at What3Words: wipes.contemplate.prayers.

Could this please be dealt with as a matter of urgency as one of the householder is unable to get their mobility scooter out due to the standing water that has resulted from the blocked drain.
