Rookery Lane/Newark Road Junction

Updates

• Thanks for letting us know about your issue with standing water covering more than half the road.

  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.

  If the problem becomes significantly worse during this incident please contact us again. You can find out more about flooding and drainage on our website
