2. Prior works detailed above confirm the system as running.
3. As we have confirmed the surface water system to be running, we have investigated further and believe any standing water may be linked the water levels of the waterway the system outfalls too, we are currently investigating this with the environmental agency.
4. This is not highways related and would need to be answered by the relevant planning department.
5. We have identified both locations for a larger scale improvement scheme. At this stage we are unable to give specific dates for this or commit to the scheme because we prioritise these schemes based on condition compared with the rest of the County footway network and the resources available to us each year. We will continue to monitor this location as part of our routine inspections of the highway in the meantime.
