Water not draining off slip Road/ blicked drains

Reported via mobile in the Flooding/drainage (NH) category anonymously at 07:28, Thursday 12 February 2026

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8898964.

Is persistently floods, to the point where warning sign needs to be put up. Very dangerous when people coming onto the A4 this section Road is completely unlit and flood can take motorists by surprise. Un flooded area is not wide enough for a car to pass through without almost stopping I don’t understand why this is not draining as it is at least 50 m in the air and there seems to be some visible drains that are likely blocked. So not allowing to water to drain off the elevated sliproad. This happens frequently. And is flooded now.
