Flooding on road and path
Sent to Buckinghamshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 6538900.
Drain at the end of the disabled parking bay is not draining water from the road and patch causing the area to flood whenever any moderate rainfall occurs. The drain is located just at the roadside of the three gravel bays and the disabled parking bay at the front of Chesham Moor Gym and Swim.

If the flooding is caused by a water leak we will report it to the relevant water company, who are responsible for water leaks.
There are occasions when flash flooding overloads the drain/gully, even when a drain/gully is clean and well maintained it can 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, this generally clears away over a matter of hours.
The Highway Officer is only able to inspect the drain when the water has cleared away, this will be done within 10 days and if required, an order will be raised to clear the drain.
