'We are in a drought area and there is a substantial volume of water constantly flowing into the road gulley'
Yesterday morning the 78-year-old said: “We are in a drought area and there is a substantial volume of water constantly flowing into the road gulley.
“It sounds from what they told me that they just don’t have the staff to attend to the leaks going on.”On Friday, August 12, a drought was declared in Hertfordshire following the country’s driest summer for 50 years. “A leak on South Approach, Northwood was reported to us on 15 August, and we immediately sent a technician to investigate.“Periods of extreme dry weather can cause shifts in ground movement, which can cause pipes to bend and crack, releasing water and increasing the amount of repairs we need to carry out.
