Road flooding due to a large numbers of blocked drains
Sent to Oxfordshire County Council less than a minute later
The drain outside my house is block, also all the drains as you go up spring lane are blocked and almost all the drains on manor farm road, church road and the green are partially or completely block. In the last four weeks we have been almost flooded three time. It is only because the home owners go out in the rain and keep the drains that are working clear otherwise we would all get flooded. The problem is due to all the block drains in all the roads that lead into oxford road. I have lived here for thirty years and it has not been a problem until now. I believe all the drains in the village need to be cleared of leaves and debris.
