Blocked Drains Church Road Horspath

Reported via desktop in the Blocked Drain / Gully category anonymously at 15:20, Wed 4 December 2024

Sent to Oxfordshire County Council less than a minute later

The drains along Church Road outside the Church and down to the shop are blocked. I have tried to clear them with mixed success. The drain opposite number 47 is completely full of leaves and debris as is the one opposite the convenience store at the beginning of Church Road. The rest I have cleared at a surface level but there is a lot of debris I cannot reach. This is resulting in rainwater running down into Oxford Road and flooding outside 5a Oxford Road and surrounding houses.
