Blocked drains and gulleys

Reported via desktop in the Flooding/drainage (NH) category anonymously at 10:20, Sun 17 December 2023

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 5329251.

Several drains and gulleys are blocked / semi blocked with leaves and assorted debris along the section from Chipstead to Morley’s roundabout ( Hildenborough intersection). This causes large puddles on nearside lane and more water drains alon and across the carriageway in heavy rain. This is a contributory factor re causing aqua planning . This has been an issue since the autumn. I consider it highly negligent that this hasn’t been dealt with as a matter of standard seasonal necessity . .
