22 cedars way to 28 cedars way

Reported via desktop in the Drains/Ditches Blocked category by Simon Bandy at 09:57, Monday 23 September 2024

Sent to Central Bedfordshire Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 411859.

This road is flooded again been like this for as long as I've lived here 22 years but speaking to others it's always been the same last year you spent money on Vacuum tank trucks, underground cctv and officers came to look but still nothing done what a waste of our money. Why don't you put a proper drain system in as we have been told by older residents there is only a soak away which just can't cope the water is up over the curb and working it's way up my path to front door. This is a main school route along with Mentmore road which also floods but not as bad. we have a SEN child who gets wet feet before he even gets to school.
