> I’ve been trying for 3 years to get this issue sorted. There is a blocked drain that is not blocked in the drain but further up the drain. What’s been happening is a truck has turned up and simply cleared the hole and left, when what need to be done is for someone to have equipment that looks up the drain to see wheee the blockage is. Attempts have been made but we have never been able to solve the main issue. When it rains the footpath become flooded. This requires a team that knows what do
