Opposite the church on A52 Hogsthorpe Road, outside the back Gate of Greenacres Washdyke Lane.
Reported via mobile in the Standing water covering more than half the road category anonymously at 14:25, Fri 29 August 2025
Sent to Lincolnshire County Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 2853990.
Previously reported but issue remains. The drain overflows flooding the main road whenever it rains with any volume. Despite the gully being emptied the drain run appears blocked so the water never clears from area but flows down the road to another drain leaving the road flooded which is dangerous particularly for motorcycles, pedestrians also get sprayed with dirty water as vehicles pass.

I was updated to say all done, but as you can see what ever was done has not resolved this blockage. The gully maybe clear but it may need a camera survey on the line from this too the next. My attached photos were during steady rain on Friday, it was a lot heavier after dark and the water was running down the road flooding the area.
