Slow drainage causing large puddles.

Reported via desktop in the Flooding/drainage (NH) category anonymously at 18:37, Tue 9 December 2025

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8525292.

Vegetation and silt are stopping rainwater from draining properly. This causes large puddles to form, which drivers drive through and splash pedestrians. Thank you for sending machines along to clear this debris, but it really needs men with shovels and brooms to do a proper job. I try and have a go myself, but I'm worried about being hit by lorries. Can you clear from the London Road, Town Lane junction to London Road, Albain Crescent junction please? Thank you.
