Cycle lane floods when it rains

Reported via mobile in the Flooding on Road category anonymously at 10:02, Thu 4 September 2025

Sent to Oxfordshire County Council less than a minute later

The recent £2.5 million beautification of side road junctions onto Woodstock road have not taken into account that it rains in England and this water requires a means of draining away. I stopped to take a photo of the finished project whilst cycling in morning, ironically with the pedestrian crossing in the back ground which was used in photo by BBC news to announce the project was finished. Every single southbound junction that has been beautified on the Woodstock Road had the same drainage issue this morning.
