Blocked surface water drain blocked at interceptor outside Gantons (neighbour) which is seeping through the cracks in the drain. When there is a frost this creates a slip issue and safety hazard. We had the same problem approx 3/4 years ago and highways successfully cleared the blockage. It is a safety hazard to pedestrians and drivers leaving and entering Gable Mews. Thank you
Sent to Gloucestershire County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8552551.
The drain is blocked in the verge between the entrance to Gable Mews , left hand verge , and the interceptor in the verge outside my immediate neighbours Gantons.

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.
