Please can you explain what you mean by "immediate repair criteria"?
The situation on the road changes depending on how much rain we have. When there is a lot of rain, as we have had on several days recently, the flow from the hole at the side of the road beside the drain increases drastically and covers much of the road, culminating in a huge pool at the bottom of the hill. After 2/3 dry days, the flow reduces.
