East side of Miletree Road

Reported via desktop in the Drains/Ditches Blocked category by Peter Towse at 11:39, Friday 19 January 2024

Sent to Central Bedfordshire Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 400360.

I reported this problem 6 times last year. Nothing was done about it. Each report was closed without any action. If someone says they have fixed it, Then they are grossly mistaken or went to the wrong road. I have lived here for coming up to 46 years. I have maintained the verge and gullies for 44 years. I am now too old and disabled to carry on. I told you the drains were blocked and overgrown. I knew when we had heavy rain the road would flood onto my property. This it did recently. Clipston brook flows through my land. On the night the level was below my property. The flood water came off the Road down my driveway and across my lawn. Had you cleaned the gullies this would not have happened. I’ve done your job for 44 years. I think the least you can do is to do what you’re supposed to do now that I can’t
