> Subject: Foul Smell from Drain at Cranford &amp; Edgeware Roads Intersection Kia ora, The drain on the corner of Cranford Road and Edgeware Road, near Harcourts St Albans, has been smelling very bad for quite a long time now. The odour is becoming quite unbearable, especially while waiting at the pedestrian crossing lights on Cranford Street. It seems like the drain may need cleaning or inspection. Would it be possible to have this looked at and fixed as soon as possible please? Many thanks.
