The tarmac path from the dropped curb to my drive has dropped allowing water from the road that the drains are unable to cope with since the road has been raised / relayed . The water now floods down the drive. I have to get cars to move and push the water back.

Please could you lift the tarmac to stop the water running in down the drive and at the dropped curb for the old gate. Also please put in larger drain catchment to stop the flooding at the current drains, have been cleaned but just cannot manage. This has been occurring over the last 3 / 4 years approx.
