Blocked Drains
Reported via desktop in the Blocked - Flooding of Road/Path category anonymously at 19:59, Sun 8 December 2024
Sent to Northumberland County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 6835925.
The drains here are blocked causing the road to flood regularly, the water even floods onto the footpath! When temps dip below freezing the road and footpath become icy and very slippy due to the excess water! This has been an issue for many months! There is also a surplus of leaves from the surrounding trees that could be contributing to the issue.
