Blocked road drains
Sent to Rutland County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7248952.
At a point adjacent to the 30MPH speed restriction sign there are/were road drains/gullies on either side of the road. These used to be cleaned on a regular basis but have not been done for a long time. I say this with some confidence as neither drain can now be seen, both are completely covered with debris. This causes flooding in that area. Also flooding occurs at another point a few yards nearer to Wing. I believe that this is due to the fact that the “grips “ ( the trenches that allow water from the road ) appear not to have been cleaned out for many years.
