Blocked drainage in highways ditch

Reported via mobile in the Flooding/drainage (NH) category anonymously at 13:53, Tue 6 July 2021

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 2844848.

The ditch running alongside the motorway is blocked approx 1.3km from the junction going north. The water is pouring onto the field.apparently there’s a bridge with a pipe under to connect with the rest of the ditch which must be blocked . This field (known as the airstrip) is for haymaking and grazing but is now like a paddy field . Please could you investigate .
