All of the kerbside drains along the Main Road in Fotherby (former A16) are blocked and not allowing surface water to enter them. The attached photos show a piece of paper flowing past the entrance to the drain with the flow of water rather than being drawn into the drain. This was repeated at each drain on the road with the same result

  • Thank you for contacting us. However we will not be taking action with this report as no safety issue or risk to property can be identified, and our site visit, conducted after a night of heavy rainfall, found the drainage at this location to be in good working order. Thank you for reporting this matter.
