Sewage water is flowing freely into storm drains on Bloxham road this morning and being carried along the roadway by traffic tyres etc. This needs urgent attention
-
Still pouring out of the pavement onto road, dangerous for traffic and pedestrians.
-
Thames Water fixed the blockage problem after three days, but have not cleaned the service road alongside Bloxham Road since. The effluent and contaminated water flooded along the service road and the debris is still along all the gulleys.
