Partially blocked public drain causing blockage on private land

One of the public drains between the Catholic Club on Weldon Terrace and the back lane of Lambton Street needs cleaning out. My drains were backing up and when I used rods to clear them out the blockage was about 4 metres outside my boundary.

The public drain in question is looking very blocked and is full of stagnant water and rubbish.
