Possible blocked drain with uneven footpath causing large and merging puddles and runoff
Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 5574580.
There is a possible blocked drain outside 39 Upper Brighton Rd Sompting. I’d also like to report flooding on the footpath adjacent to my driveway that causes large puddles to merge and then runoff from the road going down my driveway and into garden. I believe the flooding on the footpath is due to uneven surface that causes large and merging puddles. I am happy to provide photographic evidence.

Thank you for making your report. We have asked our inspection team to attend this location and assess the issue. If any work is needed, they will arrange for this to happen. Should no immediate work be required we will continue to monitor this during our regular inspections. Although we always aim to complete repairs as quickly as possible, timescales do vary as we try to minimise disruption to customers by combining activities into single closures and always ensuring the safety of our people. Kind regards National Highways

Thank you for your report. The drainage from the carriageway gullies appears to be working currently. There is also a yard gully at back edge of the footway that serves as an outfall for dished channels to both 39 and 41 Upper Brighton Road. These aren’t our assets and will belong to the property owners to maintain. Whilst we don’t have a time frame, this footway has been recorded as needing to be resurfaced following a previous inspection at this location. In the meantime, we’ll continue to monitor the footway during our inspections and raise any remedial work if required. Kind Regards
National Highways
