Flooding along Northampton Road
Reported via desktop in the Blocked/Damaged category by Geoffrey Gill (Clerk to Yardley Hastings Parish Council) at 20:03, Thu 24 November 2022
Sent to Northamptonshire Highways less than a minute later. ref: 3991492.
This is happening every time it rains. In your reply to closed report 3926781 you state "the gully.....is not showing signs of being blocked". So can you please explain what is causing this issue? While I was taking the photos at least one vehicle crossed the central white line to avoid the pooling - in conditions of low visibility on a busy road. Please also refer to previous reports 2327540, 2392685, and (most importantly) 2801763.

Saw an accident there today ..The gulleys are NOT draining they are blocked ..They have been blocked for sometime ..It doesn't take any investigating it just needs someone to look at it when it has rained . It's not complicated .. CLEAN The gulleys!!!!!!

Still nothing seems to have been done to resolve this issue.. The gulleys still need cleaning ..This had been around ten weeks. And nothing done...

So today I took these pictures..they show some of the gulleys ..they are blocked and nearly all the gulleys are the same. This is the main reason for the road flooding..They have NOT been cleaned since this and previous reports back in November..The maintenance here is not fit for purpose..
What does it take to get someone to get out and clean them ..Along with the disgusting state of the rest of the road along here..Do roadsweepers exist any more?.
