Heavy rain road flooding going into driveways with three blocked street drains, 23rd April
As a parish councillor, a community resident has reported to me and asked for help with blocked drains on Mills Lane with heavy rain flooding going into driveways. I have looked at three drains, two opposite each other at the top of the lane and one about half way down on the right (which may be primarily responsible for the driveway flooding and may be a culvert) and they do seem completely blocked by soil. This problem was reported in May 2023 but no action was taken as no standing water was evident, no flooding of property was mentioned and emergencies were a priority. It would be very much appreciated if these drains could be inspected, cleaned out as needed and checked they are in order and adequate. I understand OCC Flood Management has some funds available - I do not know if these can be accessed if additional work is required. Thank you for your help and advice.

Large deep pot hole not fixed, 19th April
At noon today this was marked as fixed.
As you can see by the photo it is not fixed, it is not even outlined with red or white paint.
Attached is the previous report showing its number.
I complain most strenuously that this was marked as fixed when it hasn't been.

Potholes now more like craters, 18th April
The potholes on Ironstone Lane which have now been reported several times are STILL waiting to be repaired. There has been no activity from OCC Highways despite reports being lodged on Fix My Street by myself and others over a month ago (ENQ24996963 & ENQ24996963) and OCC changing the status to 'investigating'. The potholes, in particular the ones reported opposite the large oak tree are now very large and cars have to drive on the grass verge to avoid them. See photos attached. There are several other potholes along Ironstone Lane and with the expansion of the Office Park the road is consistently getting more use, so potholes are constantly appearing. The whole stretch could do with carriageway resurfacing but the council has so far refused to do so.

Fixed? You must be joking!, 18th April
How many times does one have to report issues with this stretch of road? I received a notification from the council yesterday to say that ENQ24996511 had been fixed. As you can see from the photographs I have taken this morning, it is far from repaired. I don't know what your highways maintenance teams class as 'fixed' but if this has been 'fixed', I'll eat my hat. Please sort this out properly.

2foot by 1 foot pothole. Stated on previous report as Fixed, 18th April
The previous report states that this pothole is FIXED! I can report that no action has been taken and the pot hole is STILL HERE! Unbelievable how you are disregarding works to be carried out

Road markings worn away and road fragmenting, 18th April
The junction has very little white road markings, and also the road surface is fragmenting which is diminishing grip and making it dangerous for cyclists when turning.

Multiple potholes along this stretch of raod, 4th April
Previously reported and not being fixed. Any damage to vehicles is now deemed to be the fault of the local authority as they have been notified on numerous occasions. All the lanes around this location are full of pot holes. Local businesses are fed up with OCC ignoring these issues.
