Flooding - every time it rains - FULL carriagway blocked, 2nd November
This corner floods every time it rains. The flood extends across the entire westbound lane, and forces traffic to drive on the wrong side of the road around a blind bend.
I have reported this multiple times before, the drain gets temporarily cleared, but almost immediately gets blocked back up with mud, debris etc.
This drain needs a permanent repair rather than a temporary fix. Soon there will be a serious accident caused on this corner because traffic drives on the wrong side of the road to avoid the flood.
Please properly fix the cause of this flooding.

Road flooded, 23rd August
Over sized farming machinery has flattened the ditc and now water that was being carried down to the river Axe by ditch, is flowing along the road. The road is covered with flowing water and wet mud. It is slippery, dirty and dangerous. The good work by Somerset Highways has been completely undone; now the road is dangerous and filthy. Please repair while the weather is still relatively dry before the rainy season and driveways are flooded and potholes form.

Daily flooding in road, 21st March
The corner of this road floods every time it rains - this problem has existed for years. The flood covers the full width of the westbound carriageway. This means that cars are forced to drive on the wrong side of the road around a blind corner. This has nearly caused many accidents. Please fix this flooding now, it adds significant danger to this route.
