This is to notify residents that a section of Manor Road in Wantage is to close temporarily from 25th July for up to 6 weeks. This is so that Thames Water can carry out essential drainage works, which need to be completed over the summer. Several residents in the area have suffered from flooding of their properties in the past, and this work will hopefully resolve these issues as well address the new houses being built there.
I attended an exhibition and drop-in session at the Comrades Club in Newbury Street held on Monday 20th June, which was organised by Thames Water. Several local residents attended who could ask queries and voice any concerns on the closure. A photo of the plans is shown above.
It was some time ago that a resident attended my local surgery in Grove Library to voice concerns over flooding to homes and gardens in this area, so I am pleased that Thames Water are now taking action to resolve this issue.
