The drainage on the south side of Station Road adjacent the speed limit sign.

Reported via desktop in the Blocked/Damaged category by Councillor Stephen Clarke at 13:30, Sat 10 May 2025

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. ref: 7549020.

There is often a stream of water in the gutter even in relatively dry weather and it seems to have got worse lately and possibly causing damage to the road surface. It can sometimes lead to vehicles straddling the centre of the road which is less than ideal. Some limited run-off from the field on the northern side has always occurred in wet weather but the south side is now particularly bad.

  • Your update for this item is incorrect. I visited the site and it still shows a stream of water in the gutter. The second Photograph shows an Anglian Water card tucked into the top of the brick wall and the third photograph is a copy of the card with a date of 26/6/2025 on it. Therefore your narrative for your visit on 23 July 2025 is incorrect. Please advise me as to the current status of this matter?
