Drain silted

Reported via mobile in the Blocked Drain category anonymously at 21:52, Fri 12 August 2022

Sent to Bromley Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 3750666.

This drain has lots of silt around and inside it on the lower side of the Acer Road parking area.

In event of heavy rain after current hot weather this and neighbouring drains could become overwhelmed and flood due to silt blockages.

Please could they be cleaned out

    Very concerned about potential flash flooding after this prolonged hot weather as this drain is totally silted and blocked.

    If this could please be attended to ASAP

    None of the 3 drains on this side have been opened or cleaned since this was reported as shown by the amount of undisturbed sediment and weeds.

    Drain now has sitting water in it as blocked with sediment below as per previous photo.

    Thank you for using FMS, the gullies have been monitored after the recent heavy rain and they were found to be functioning.

    The gullies have been recorded and will be cleaned under the cyclic drainage programme for Biggin Hill in January.
