Sent to Central Bedfordshire Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 368607.
The ditches and gullies have not been cleared for years,the drains along Totternhoe road are completely full and will not take any more water, consequently my drive is constantly flooding,the gravel is washed away and mud and debris is driven down every time a car goes by shooting water from the vast puddles in the road and through my gate

The gullies have been dug out and a good job has been done around the village but the ditches remain the same,overgrown and blocked. Nothing has been done about the drains which is my main complaint as this is what is affecting property. Two weeks ago when we had heavy rain the drains could not take any water down them, consequently it flowed down my drive creating such large puddles I was unable to leave my house. After the road was resurfaced last year, the tar and chippings were swept down the draìns where they remain.The footpath is unpassable on foot also. Ideally I would like somebody to come out so that I can show the problem.
