Drains unblocked in Whickham

BLOCKED drains on the Glebe Estate in Whickham, Gateshead, which were flooding a road have been cleared following the intervention of a local Liberal Democrat Councillor.

Residents of Glebe Rise contacted Councillor Peter Craig to ask for help after building work on a house in the area caused sand and cement to block up the drains.

“Officer from Gateshead Council have now been out to remove the sand and cement that was causing the blockage,” said Cllr Craig. “They have also swept away gravel and other debris left on the road surface.”
