Unfortunately those works were not successful. However, following our latest representations to highways officers at county hall last week, we have now received a response from the highway maintenance department confirming that works to address this problem are scheduled to be carried out within the next two months.
We have reproduced the highways officer's comments below:
The work that was carried out
has improved things but its acknowledged that there is some residual ponding.
The road in this area is quite
flat with no road gullies in the vicinity of the residual ponding – this limits
options.
A length of the road channel in
the vicinity of the entrance will be patched and reshaped in order keep this
area clear of standing water.
It is anticipated that the work
will be done within the next 2 months.
