Two drains holes in Workhouse Lane

Reported via mobile in the Drains/Ditches Blocked category anonymously at 09:52, Wed 11 September 2024 ; (there is no pin shown as the user did not use the map)

Sent to Central Bedfordshire Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 411248.

The Drains in lane are blocked and road completely floods when raining preventing its use other than by vehicle. Making it inaccessible by foot. To my knowledge the drains have not been cleared for years.

    Road totally impassable on foot. Main road had a river crossing it from the lane. Cars were having problems.
