Blocked drains on A5

Reported via desktop in the Flooding/drainage (NH) category anonymously at 07:24, Thu 23 October 2025

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8328796.

At least 2 drains are blocked, full to the top with silt, just before The Prince of Wales pub. Not sure how long but I’d say a while.

  • 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.
