Drain blocked by mud
Reported via mobile in the Blocked drain category anonymously at 10:44, Wed 30 November 2022
Sent to Buckinghamshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 4004970.
When it rains heavily because the drain is blocked, the water floods down the bridleway causing a gulley and then a build up of debris which are both dangerous for horses.

This has been passed to the Local Area Technician to investigate.
We know that an important part of any road network is the drainage system which is designed to carry water away from the road surface. Even when a gully is clean and well maintained it will only cope with a certain volume of water at one time, a sudden and heavy downpour can still cause flooding especially if the road is in a low lying area.
