Drain permanently blocked

Reported via mobile in the Blocked/Damaged category anonymously at 11:54, Mon 30 December 2024

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. ref: 6910568.

Flooding of this road has been permanent for over a month now, the drain was pumped out weeks and made no difference. They abandoned five sandbags which are doing nothing and a waste of time. With the storm due over the next two days this will flood entirely.
