Water is coming up from the ground which suggests there may be a water pipe leak or a sewer leak

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.

Update
We have been to the site and found no evidence of any flooding, this may mean that water has drained away.
This may mean the issue has already been inspected and resolved, or that it does not present any immediate safety to the public as during heavy rainfall some drains/gulley's may take longer to empty this is perfectly normal.
This report is now closed to updates from the public. You can make a new report in the same location.
