Water actively flowing into road

Reported via iOS in the Blocked Ditch category anonymously at 15:12, Sat 20 December 2025

Sent to North Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. ref: 8574424.

I reported this recently was told it’s not a problem. I thought it was flooding but way is actively flowing down the road here. So it’s leaking from somewhere onto the road. On heavy rain days the water does encroach into the active carriageway.

  • There is still water flowing out of the side of the road and the road is starting to collapse. This issue is made worse by the run off from the farmer's fields to the NW side of the road which flows across the road near to this defect. The road have been closed twice in the last few weeks due to the flooding.
