Badly blocked drain eroding road, 11th May
The drain is meant to take a huge amount of water under the road into a large ditch. But the drain is completely blocked so all water running over road. Road is collapsing, and so is the top of the drain on the ditch side as it can’t cope with all the water coming over the top.
