REGARDING Western Road: almost every single property has some groundwater flooding.
Some have 2ft in their basement (which is usually the kitchen/lounge on this road). Firetrucks (note the plural) have been pumping this water into the river. It seems they have also responded to a fire in a house.
All sewage drains are blocked (or draining very slowly). Thames Water is not taking responsibility for this issue and will not attempt to solve the problem.
And the amount of water pouring in through the walls in our house has only been increasing since this all started, and showing no signs of stopping.
