On the road outside the drive to Greenacres
Reported via desktop in the Gully/Drainage category anonymously at 20:03, Thu 9 December 2021
Sent to Cheshire East Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 3170496.
The road drain outside the drive to Greenacres has been blocked and overflowing for at least a year. Because the position is on a slight slope the overflowing water flows down the hill, eroding the tarmac and pooling and flooding at the low point. Today (9/12/21) your contractors have been patching the potholes that the water from this overflowing drain has caused. I discussed the drain with them and they agreed it was the cause, and asked me to report it. Please can you arrange for the drain to be unblocked as soon as possible. Thanks

We deal with gullies based on the level of immediate risk. We have assessed this location and it is not considered to present an immediate danger to highway users at this time. We are due to empty the gullies here as part of our routine programme in the next 12 weeks. This means we will not visit before the scheduled visit unless there is an immediate threat to life or the inside of property. You can find out the scheduled visit date by visiting our website: https://www.cheshireeast.gov.uk/ highways_and_roads/ road-maintenance/ gullies-and-drains.aspx
