Drain overflowing

Reported via desktop in the Blocked - Flooding of Road/Path category anonymously at 12:18, Sunday 29 September 2024

Sent to Northumberland County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 6529115.

Drain blocked and water running over the pavement and into the road. Whole pavement is covered in foul water. This happened after heavy rainfall over the last autumn/winter and clearly is still a problem after recent rainfall.
