Residents call for action as sewage flows down Nottingham street

A spokesperson for Severn Trent said the company is 'aware of the issue'

Residents on a Nottingham street were left disgusted after sewage was spotted flowing down their street amid flooding caused by Storm Babet. The sewage was reported by residents in Sydney Road, Wollaton, on Friday morning at around 8.30am, with residents saying this is a recurring issue for them.

"There is a part of a brick lodged in the crack and that's what's causing it to block and that is why it all backs up. The report was done on July 13 to say that what needed to be done was for that to be repaired." "Severn Trent are investigating it but they haven’t been here today even though we’ve reported it twice now. It's not in the house, that's all I could say is good. It's pretty madness, isn't it?

"Severn Trent came out last Wednesday and photographed this section of the road but it looked like that’s all they did. We've complained lots and lots of times, but I don't think they've done anything." A Severn Trent spokesperson said: “We’re aware of an issue at Sydney Road in Wollaton and apologise for any inconvenience that this is causing. With rising flood water on roads caused by Storm Babet, we are working as quickly and efficiently as possible to get teams out to them.
