Completely blocked drain

Reported via mobile in the Blocked/Damaged category anonymously at 20:17, Mon 9 June 2025

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. ref: 7684882.

Drain is full of dried mud which has baked hard in the sun. Any subsequent rain will not be able to drain as designed and cause the area to flood. Why is this not being maintained properly please?
