I am in complete agreement with Flash Harry. There are persistent leaks on Ewelme Rd which Thames Water have repaired only for them to reappear or appear in another spot. I think there is major damage to pipework underneath caused by road resurfacing and continued heavy traffic. I think Thames Water and the Council are well aware of this and neither is acting responsibly. Their failure to act has now caused a hazardous situation for residents and traffic on this road.

Why did it take so long for Thames Water to reply to my initial report of leaks on the road? Why was I told by Thames Water that major work requiring Council permits needed to be carried out and that there was a problem obtaining permission for works to start? Why has this story changed? What has the council got to say about the matter?
