ARE the surface water drains in Kendal ready to cope with any autumn/winter downpours or are they blocked with debris?

Who is responsible for emptying the drains and is the work being done?

Do we all need to check the drains in our area and report any which are blocked to give the department responsible chance to clear the drains regularly over the next few months and hopefully reduce the risk of properties both residential and commercial being flooded again over the winter months?
