top4718 Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 Water companies are not interested in blocked drains or the water system being antiquated and not suitable to meet the demands of a growing population, they care about giving huge profits to shareholders though and now they can just blame "climate change" for any problems their lack of investment causes, politicians won't address this as it plays brilliantly into their hands when pushing the propaganda. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because roadside blocked drains aren't their responsibility perhaps? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 Although my view of Sheffield council is unprintable, I must in fairness say that I have observed the drain cleaning vehicle, having to miss drain after drain, due to parked cars & vans. It is a bit of a problem for the department if they don't have ready access to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they did it regularly they could pre-warn people to keep it clear, they did with the re-surfacing works. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
