Permanent surface water/puddles but no rain?

Reported via mobile in the Flooding on Road category anonymously at 17:59, Tuesday 21 January 2025

Sent to Oxfordshire County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7013248.

There is permanent surface water, wet pavement, gutter and puddles, but we’ve had no rain. This has been like this for several weeks now but until the drier weather wasn’t obvious. When it freezes the pavement is very slippery and dangerous. Query underground water leak/burst pipe in the immediate area.

Council ref: ENQ251031915

  • Thank you for your report. Our gully cleansing contractor has encountered difficulties in clearing the pipes to restore the drainage system’s functionality. The Oxfordshire County Council will now conduct additional investigations to determine the root cause of the drainage system failure and propose a solution. While we oversee highway drainage, it’s essential to consider other potential factors. These may include involvement from other service providers like Thames Water, or the issue could be related to a private ditch, stream, or culvert.
