Guest   #2 Posted June 10, 2016 The rain water is flowing like a river down Walkley Bank road and Rivelin road onto Rivelin Valley road. I shudder to think what Holme lane is like! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

pippadoll   10 #4 Posted June 10, 2016 The rain water is flowing like a river down Walkley Bank road and Rivelin road onto Rivelin Valley road. I shudder to think what Holme lane is like!  I drove along Rivelin Valley Road around 430, it was treacherous. A car was being washed along just past the Stanmore grin turn-off, completely impassable.  Very scary, although not on the realms of 2007.

Dggsheffield   10 #7 Posted June 10, 2016 have the streets ahead team got to the flood yet or they hoping it will disappear before they finish their tea.  still waiting for the pavement to be repaired outside my house by streets ahead team 3 weeks after being given a incident number, they just hope the problems go away rather than fix them correctly. I blame the engineers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Meltman   314 #8 Posted June 10, 2016 I wonder if it is related but something I have not seen for years...the council cleaning out grates and drains with a suction lorry thing. Come to think of it I bet the council don't own any such lorries now, they seem to prefer to pay contractors rates! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
