Blocked drains causing flooding.

Reported via mobile in the Blocked - Flooding of Road/Path category anonymously at 22:20, Mon 27 May 2024

Sent to Northumberland County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 6026527.

I reported these previously in November 2023. I was advised that the problem had been rectified. It has not as the attached photographs show. There was heavy flooding yet again due to these drains being silted up for almost a year. Please sort this out once and for all as it is causing significant flooding and danger to cars, pedestrians and cyclists.

  • The drains remain blocked. The drain covers were cleared but the drain itself remains wholly blocked as demonstrated when Storm Darragh arrived last weekend and the drain simply overflowed. A bodged job by whoever was supposed to clear the whole drain. Not good enough and as a result the road and roundabout remain hazardous.
