Top drain opposite No13 Crawley Hill what3words ///branching.begin.cleansed
Reported via mobile in the The drain is blocked category anonymously at 16:40, Tuesday 8 October 2024
Sent to Gloucestershire County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 6567409.
This blocked drain was reported in July 2023 and I was told:” I can confirm that our annual cyclical gully cleansing programme has commenced, and we will endeavour to get to these gullies as soon as possible” I reported again in may this year. Every time there is heavy rain a serious river runs down the road and is washed over our houses by each car. This has been going on for 2 years with zero effort by yourselves to fix except for closing these reports .

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.
