FIXMYSTREET IN NR16 1NN
The following problems have been reported on Fix My Street within 2 miles of NR16 1NN:
Ditch overflowing., 19th December
I alerted you to this problem over a year ago. The ditches are overflowing due to 24/7 output from the sewage works. The council pipe that traverses the lane is woefully undersize for the flow or water. The ditches have been cleared and deepened by the farmers but the council is responsible for the pipe across the lane. Water is now going backwards up the ditch behind my house and is only feet from by back door. The situation is urgent.

Gullies blocked, 19th December
Letter box gullies are blocked which causes flooding in heavy rain. I have attempted to clear two of the gullies by reaching in as far as possible, but carrier pipes are full of silt and road grit. Needs jetting please to improve outfall flow to watercourse. I know this has been reported before, and reply received stated the problem was not at intervention level. The pipes are blocked, i have cleared the first foot by hand but beyond that they are still blocked. So 'not at intervention level' doesn't make much sense. I also dug out the grips on the opposite verge to help alleviate the issue. The properties at Oak Range and Esperanto get the run off if this isn't sorted.

Blocked roadside drains, 17th November
Letter box gullies are blocked on S bend which increases flood water on road during heavy rain. Surface water can then also drain off road into driveways at Oak Range and Esperanto causing water level in private ditches getting too high and flooding septic tanks and domestic drainage. This has in the past caused water to back up into property through the drains.

Inadequate ditch pipes downstream of Sewage works., 28th January
Bunwell Sewage works runs 24-7-365 into the ditch. The water crosses the lane twice near my house (Horse Shoe Cottage) via 5" pipes. These are wholly inadequate and, this time of year, the ditch overflows onto the lane. Above the sewage works the ditch has an 8" pipe but lower down, with the additional and constant outfall of the sewage plant and additional land drainage, goes down to 5 ". This needs to be upgraded to a bigger pipe. Ideally an extra pipe crossing should be installed just below the sewage works.

Ditches not coping, 20th December
Sewage plant out let water + run-off from fields is overwhelming the ditches. The 5" pipe that goes under the lane, twice, in close proximity to my house, is not big enough to cope. These pipes need up-sizing urgently.

A large hole adjacent to the highway that fills with water and is undermining the carriageway., 25th November
This is a recurring problem in need of a permanent repair. The hole fills with water and is undermining the carriageway and causing it to dip down. If we get freezing conditions during the winter it will cause the tarmac surface to start breaking up.
