Drains completely blocked

Reported via desktop in the Blocked/Damaged category by Yvonne Blood at 10:22, Friday 6 February 2026

Sent to North Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. ref: 8847899.

There is a drain next to the railway bridge which is covered in silt and cannot be seen. One drain is the side were the cottages are and the other drain is the side leading to the industrial estate. This problem was reported previously which reulted in all the drains being cleaned except the two that really need it. Can you please arrange for them to be done.

  • The drains have been cleared by a resident as water was starting to cause problems under the bridge. However the soil around the drains is already covering them. It needs the drains tops clearing completely and the soil/silt around them taking away. If this is not done properly the problem with only get worse.
