Main highway and entrance to COOINDA

Reported via desktop in the Standing water covering less than half the road category anonymously at 18:30, Tuesday 15 April 2025

Sent to Lincolnshire County Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 2841447.

The highway is now a noticeable camber - due to the main drains cover on that highway and successive road maintenance work which has elevated the centre of the highway. This heightening of the road has also effectively blocked the only rainwater drainage release opening in the road. Thus when it rains, COOINDA receives the majority of the rainfall due to the camber in the centre of the road near the mains drain. We fitted a soakaway at the entrance to our driveway some years ago but the camber now on the main road makes it less than fully effective. Request we have our driveway entrance elevated to the actual road height - this will solve the problem. A repair to the rainwater drainage release would also other occupants.

  • We've inspected and acknowledge that this gully/system is blocked, but because it could not be shown to be causing a serious highway safety or property flooding issue due to recent prolonged dry weather, we will not be ordering work at this time. As discussed during the site visit with the Highways Officer, please collect any photographic evidence of carriageway flooding at this location, and any other areas such as the driveway. Based on this evidence we may then reassess the need to carry out works. Thank you for reporting this matter.

    State changed to: No further action
