The clerk asked for an update report recently and received the response reproduced below, which confirms that real progress has been made on both issues.
A large amount of material has
been removed from the highway drains near the primary school. The drainage will
be much improved, the only outstanding work is to survey the system downstream
to add the details/route etc. to our records. This will allow for greater
future maintenance and will make the reaction to any future problems much
quicker.
Rodridge Lane is awaiting a full
CCTV survey and cleansing, this will allow us to better understand the cause of
flooding in the area and if necessary come up with a plan to reduce the
flooding risk. Unfortunately it looks like this will now be started in April do
to the greater priority we are giving to property flooding. I’ll keep you
updated as soon as I have more details.
