Due to blocked gullys the road is flooded currently 6”+ and rising. Very dangerous with cars attempting to drive through, some at speed which is increasing the flooding into our garden. Continued rain may mean internal flooding if the road is kept open. As there are no street lights here it is dangerous for motorists as debris from the woods is in the flooded area and there is no way of seeing where the toad ends and the gulleys start. Motorists attempting to negotiate the flood could easily veer off the road and into ditched. There is also no mobile signal in the event of them becoming stranded or an accident. .

Council ref: ENQ24986171
