Blocked road drain, 8th August

Thu, 08 Aug 2019 06:56:24 +0100
54.248105 -3.256139

The road drain outside my property is half full of runoff soil and gravel which has blocked the outflow to the main surface water drains. Overflows within minutes in heavy rain and threatens to flood my house. As it is near the bottom of a hill, the flow of water is at some speed. Ideally new drain needed nearer top of slope to cope with water from further up the road

Almost 50% of the street lights along Green Road are not working. This is a country lane with no pavements so you risk life and limb walking down there at present. Please repair these asap, 22nd December

Someone will be seriously injured or even killed if these lights are not repaired asap.
