We have experienced a large amount of rainfall in a short period of time. We are prioritising reports where the flooding poses a risk to life or a significant risk of internal flooding.
In times of extremely heavy rain drains can become overwhelmed and at the moment roadside drains may not be able to drain away due to watercourses being full and backing up.
When the situation has returned to normal we will re-assess your report and may re-open it if necessary.
If the problem becomes significantly worse during this incident please contact us again.
