There is road damage and water ponding over Crystal Palace Subway (North side of road), causing sustained water egress into the ground. Progressive road work repairs has re-profiled road surface, and means surface water now ponds directly over Grade II Subway, and does not drain away. This ponding slowly soaks into the ground above the Subway adding containments and adding issues when the ground is saturated. Additionally, the heavily cracked road surface adds to surface water and contaminants soaking into the ground above the Subway.

The ponding water and road surface damage above the CP Subway could be impacting how to prove a mains water leak into the CP Subway under, and contributing to the ongoing leak seen inside the Grade II* CP Subway. The road surface needs to relayed, and reprofiled near the kerb on the North side, to stop ponding of water on top of the Subway.
