Water constantly running from driveway of “Little Gidding”on main road through Ebrington. This then flows down the edge of the road to the drain at the corner with Coldicott Leys, eroding the road surface badly and creating water-filled potholes along the way which then splash large quantities of water up onto the pavement every time a vehicle passes. With the colder months approaching this will create a serious hazard with frost and ice. This has been reported numerous times. The drain was repaired on 19 August and is already in very bad condition.
Sent to Gloucestershire County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 6483004.

Thank you for reporting a drainage or flooding issue.
We will investigate the issue. If additional clearance work is needed, the local highways team will prioritise the most urgent reports. Where possible, maintenance tasks will be grouped together in a schedule for efficiency.
Sometimes during periods of heavy rain, even a clear gully can be overwhelmed. Usually the water will drain away within an hour.
Every gully or drain the county council is responsible for is cleared at least once each year. Some drains in problem areas are cleared more frequently. You can find out more, including the gully emptying schedule on our website by visiting www.gloucestershire.gov.uk/highways/roads/road-maintenance
If your property is at risk of flooding please see the Flood Guide for advice and support by visiting www.gloucestershire.gov.uk/planning-and-environment/flood-risk-management/flooding-information/flood-guide
If you are driving: please never ignore road closures or enter flood water. This could put you or others in danger and invalidate your insurance.
We will provide updates about this report. Thank you again for taking the time to report this issue.
