Blocked road drain causing standing water on the road
Sent to Northumberland County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 5148154.
The drain is fully blocked with earth and debris causing rain water to build up on the road. All of the drains on this road would benefit from a good wash through. The blocked one has been like this for at least 18 months - I have previously reported it but nothing was done.

Hi - this is still outstanding and causing water to pool on the road. The row of drains from the ford to St Peter’s church could all do with clearing and flushing through

Hi - this is still outstanding and needs action to resolve. The problem originates from water flowing down from behind the church causing debris and muck to block the drains. Both the cause and resulting blocked drains need to be sorted.

This is still outstanding and getting worse with the colder temperatures. This is now causing a build up of ice across the road which is clearly dangerous for vehicles and pedestrians. As mentioned before both the cause of the running water and the resulting blocked drain needs resolving.

Over the last 2 days this has frozen and the entire road (both sides) is covered in thick ice.

The drain’s still blocked
