Drains blocked leading to standing water

Reported via desktop in the Blocked/Damaged category by Monica de Bokx at 13:03, Friday 5 April 2024

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. ref: 5811632.

The drains in this underpass have been blocked for a long time making this underpass only safely usable to those in wellies. The accumulated mud makes it unsafe to 'jump' the standing water as it is rather slippy. Can the drains get cleared please so people can once again safely use this underpass?

  • When it rains it quickly forms a puddle here. When it dries up there's mud and leaves left. I tend to pick or kick some away each time I pass but hope the Council will get this job properly done, before September 19th as promised.

  • A reminder that the drains at this underpass are still awaiting clearing (the target date was 19/9/24). There is standing water at the Eden Close side making it unsafe to pass unless you're in wellies or so.
