Between Co-op on Rose Avenue and the bus stop towards Ashley Drive
Reported via mobile in the Flooding on a road/footpath category anonymously at 16:10, Monday 20 October 2025 using FixMyStreet Pro
Sent to Buckinghamshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8318359.
Road and footpath completely flooded again. Flooding this time even goes behind the bus stop. Footpaths are not passable, bus stop is not usable, road is dangerous as flood is near a bend, and school users of Manor Farm school cannot access the school from Ashley Drive end of Rose Avenue. This problems has been reported on many occasions over many years and still not satisfactory outcome has been achieved. I would like to know when Highways Officers previously inspected this area and what their findings were please.

If the flooding is caused by a water leak we will report it to the relevant water company, who are responsible for water leaks.
There are occasions when flash flooding overloads the drain/gully, even when a drain/gully is clean and well maintained it can only cope with a certain volume of water at one time, a sudden and heavy downpour can still cause flooding especially if the road is in a low lying area, this generally clears away over a matter of hours.
The Highway Officer is only able to inspect the drain when the water has cleared away, this will be done within 10 days and if required, an order will be raised to clear the drain.
