Drain Completely Blocked
Reported via mobile in the Blocked/Damaged category anonymously at 05:30, Sun 16 May 2021
Sent to Northamptonshire Highways less than a minute later. ref: 2728543.
This drain is completely blocked with silt, leaves and road debris / tarmac clippings.
The drain is located at the bottom of a hill of the road leading out of Culworth so rain water runoff is excessive and fast here.
The drain needs unblocking/cleaning and testing ASAP in order to prevent the potential cause of flooding / build up of large puddles in the road.

Thank you for your enquiry and for bringing this matter to our attention. We understand that you have concerns about the condition of the drains on Banbury Lane; specifically that you feel they are blocked and potentially pose a flooding risk. Whilst we appreciate your comments, we have carried out an investigation and can confirm that there are no immediate safety concerns evident. However, we are pleased to confirm that cyclic cleansing of the drains and gullies in this area will commence in the near future (within the next six months). In some cases, we are able to attend before this prospective time; however, at this time, we have no further information other than the timeframe given above.
