Drains and grids collect water that runs off the roads and pavements and have a metal grill cover.
Tell us about drains or grids on pavements and roads that are raised or sunken as these may cause a hazard. We also need to know if a drain is blocked, eg if rain water is pooling on the surface and not draining away.
Report a drain or grid issue
