All Drainage Gullies in Verge Blocked
Reported via mobile in the Blocked Ditch category anonymously at 22:34, Tuesday 12 May 2026
Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 9443541.
All the dropped kerb concrete drainage gullies around this sharp bend are completely blocked with a build up of mud and vegetation growth!
This is preventing water from being able to drain to the ditch soak away at the back of the verge.
Additionally the ditch itself requires dredging to increase capacity
