  • This has NOT been fixed and is now not only destroying crops but in danger of flooding the M56 westbound potentially causing fatal accidents

  • The attenuation Basin is still full despite having only had circa 20mm of rain within March, this should now be much lower so it provides active attenuation during periods of heavy rainfall
