Surface water gullies have been blocked on Bexley Lane for 6 months with gully pots to carrier main likely to be Borough of Bexley assets, not Thames Water. When it rains, the entire side of Bexley Lane floods causing issues for cars parked and pedestrians crossing the road. There is a constant slurry of silt and organic waste that is unable to find its way to the sewer network due to the heavily blocked drainage on Bexley Lane. This is unacceptable and needs to be fixed.
