Drain fully blocked and smells like human excrement

Reported via desktop in the Blocked drain: Blockage inside drain category anonymously at 15:16, Tue 19 November 2024

Sent to Bath and North East Somerset Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 6760676.

This has had a foul smell in it on and off for years, someone might have routed their waste pipe to it?

Anyway, it's not draining away so might be a toxic hazard soon. thanks

  • This drain is still blocked. Previous issues with sewage leaking from here were due to an upstream converted garage routing their sewage into the surface water drain. This is a public health risk.
