Blocked drain
Reported via mobile in the Blocked - Flooding of Road/Path category anonymously at 17:04, Monday 12 January 2026
Sent to Northumberland County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8674909.
This has been reported on the 16th November and then 6th December last year and I'm reporting it as nothing appears to be happening. I spoke to my councillor and she has reported it. The undertaker is using a bucket and pours the water down another drain.
