Neighbours 'sickened' by 'foul smells' after sewage and 'mushed up toilet paper' spills onto main road
Residents say they have been left 'sickened' after a sewage spill in their local village. Neighbours who live in the Nottinghamshire village of Gedling have been complaining of 'foul smells' after sewage has leaked onto a main road.
Severn Trent Water said a team had been to the site and were working "as quickly as possible" to stop the sewage flooding, which has been caused by a blockage, reports NottinghamshireLive.Chris Cann, a retired library worker who lives near to the leak, said the sight and smell of the sewage on the pavement was "totally disgusting".
"It flows out of the drain and along the pavement. It smells pretty bad but some kids might not realise and walk through it thinking it's just water. Dogs could walk through it and walk it into people's homes."Ms Cann said the flooding had been present for weeks, however Severn Trent say they were first contacted about the problem on Friday, June 23.
"It shouldn't be happening for one day. It's sickening and it's really detrimental to the area. Sometimes it even runs down into the main road.
