Build up of washed down debris
Sent to Bath and North East Somerset Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 4026590.
This road has not been cleared of debris that is washed down the steep road to Caroline Place for several years. There is now literally tonnes of grit/debris accumulated at the bottom section which is so deep the kerb face there is buried under the first three parking spaces. Please cone off the parking bays and clear this asap please. I reported this weeks ago and some work has been done and a gully cleared out. However without removing cars from these bays the remaining washed down debris still causes ponding of water and prevents water getting to the 1 cleared gully between parking bays. To say the original issue has been fixed is not correct. The cleaning out of an easily accessible gully has been done but the difficult work of clearing the debris accumulated under parked cars has not.

29th Dec 22 - I attempted to clear the build up of debris because our garage was at risk of flooding. There were no cars parked so I could access the problem, but there is so much loose tarmac mixed with the general silt, that it has become a solid mass. 30th Dec 22 - although I was able to create a bit of a channel over the pavement for the water to drain away, it is still flooding.
The road needs to be resealed and levelled with new tarmac. Yellow line and parking bay lines are almost gone.
