  • Culvert grill still not fixed and now the leaves are filling up the drain on Main Street. With the rain now here it won't belong before the culvert gets blocked again and the road floods.

  • Issue not fixed, now leaves and branches are starting to enter culvert as I mentioned in earlier correspondence if the grill wasn't fixed. I also raised this at the Oundle Highways drop-in three weeks ago your operative on duty said he would get back to me with an update but didn't! Following the recent rain the water causeway and drain is filling up with debris and water.
