Continues flooding

Reported via desktop in the Blocked Drain / Gully category anonymously at 10:52, Sat 19 October 2024

Sent to Oxfordshire County Council 1 minute later

On friday 19th October a gully sucker cam and sucked out the drains in box tree lane Postcombe. Today the lane is once again flooded, if anything it is worse my garage is flooded this is the fifth time this year I have had to pump out as when the lane floods it backs up my surface water runoff. I have been here 40 years and it’s worse than ever. There is obviously a serious problem underground and you need to sort this out, it is your responsibility to respond to this and rectify it or Iam just going to keep banging in faults. I am now going to report this to my MP.
