Drain completely blocked
Sent to Northumberland County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 6441604.
Drain blocked for over 12 months, was reported last year but no action taken. Blocked drain is causing surface water flooding with substantial amounts of spray reducing driving visibility. During heavier rainfall it is also causing flooding of the opposite path. The surface water flooding is causing pedestrians to be soaked by passing vehicles.
