Investigating
In pavement outside Nos 5 and 7 Larkin Avenue, Cherry Willingham LN3 4AZ

Sent to Lincolnshire County Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 2882987.
Blocked drain previously reported in 2024 and several reminders sent. Still no action. Standing water in my garden has now killed off part of my front box hedging and a mature eucalyptus tree. Investigations revealed blocked drain. Water still flowing across the pavement causing a slip risk particularly in icy weather.
