I continue to
get complaints about blocked gullies causing ponding of water. The latest example
is the terrible flooding that occurs at the junction of Ferndale Drive and
Deepdale Place.
The council’s roads maintenance partnership has advised me that
gullies are targeted for cleaning on an 18 month cycle in Dundee (which doesn’t
seem enough to me). Broughty Ferry is programmed for commencement in mid-August
in the Collingwood Street area then heading eastwards.
The council has been carrying out ad hoc cleans when required
for flooding concerns. I have reported
the problem in Ferndale Drive and have asked that it be treated with some
urgency.
