Action scheduled
Outside 9a,7 and pumping station in New Road Tyler’s Green
Sent to Buckinghamshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 6539697.
All three gullies are not taking water which flows across the top to contribute to floods at Junction. It is not a result of low lying land as commented on by yourselves in my last report. I know this system having spent twenty years working with my LAT.

This has been passed to the Highway Officer 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.
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.
