# Street Gutters / Storm Water, 277 Okuti Valley Road, Little River 7591, New Zealand

Little River, Christchurch · filed 21 July 2022 · report 2493741
https://www.chch.live/report/2493741

> Serious scouring out at the entrance to our driveway making it difficult to enter and unsafe. The recently installed culvert above our house flooded again and resulted in huge amounts of surface water damage. Driveway is basically unusable. This has happened to a lesser degree in the past and some shingle was compacted at our gate. Select pieces of tarmac were also put along the roadside. What it needs (and has been raised previously) is a thorough seal with tarmac right down our side of the road and over our driveway entrance. Also the recently installed culvert appears too small to handle decent rainfalls and just overflows.
