Sunken drain cover

Reported via mobile in the Road surface (NH) category anonymously at 18:59, Tue 12 August 2025

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8016331.

Sinking drain on A49 I am following up my complaint about the sinking drain cover on the north bound side of the A49 at Dorrington , opposite Station Road . It is getting worse and very noisy when traffic passes over it. The Road itself is not level so, the drain cover sinking is making the traffic noise even worse. I do believe that other residents have made a complaint, but with no response. I think this matter needs your attention.
