Half carriageway flooded every time there is a very heavy storm

Reported via desktop in the Blocked/Damaged category by Geoff Pullin at 17:44, Fri 14 November 2025

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. ref: 8420711.

This particular drain is one of three I am reporting -all modern (1970s) designed and built roads that used not to have flooding problems. It would be nice to think that an investigation can show whether it is lack of routine cleaning or some more fundamental problem that causes the flooding which are difficult to see from a distance so it/they can be permanently put right in due course.
