Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7902014.

This drain, which was recently repaired and reset has this week been filled with cement by a foolish tradesman working in the street. This cement has set in the drain and the drain is now full of rainwater and not doing its job.
