  • This problem was reported on early March and is still a present and recurring problem. In times of heavy rain the road floods and as the drain is blocked the water seeps through the adjacent wall. In one place the wall has now collapsed. A longer term solution needs to be developed for this area in the meantime some response to clear the area would be appreciated!

  • Whatever action has ben decided, nothing has changed on site. There is more mud than ever and the flooding continues in periods of heavy rain. This needs to be a higher priority!
