# Flooding, 31 Newbridge Place, Ilam, Christchurch 8041, New Zealand

Ilam, Christchurch · filed 12 March 2025 · report 6010351
https://www.chch.live/report/6010351

> Behind 29 and 31 Newbridge place where the sections meet Ilam fields. Okeover stream is flooding quickly due to blockages by uncleared vegetation up against the grates along the stream. We’ve been flooded four times for this very reason if it keeps raining longer it’s headed for a fifth time pretty quick. Please come and clear out the leaves and branches which are preventing the free flow/drainage of the stream. Insurance won’t cover us anymore. This is a preventable event with maintenance
