That's the worst I've seen it in 20 years, the council did make an effort to clear the drains regularly after it flooded badly there a few years ago.

Sure, and they should. My point was that the existing drainage, no matter how clear, is obviously inadequate for rain like this. Underpasses like the one at Worcester Park should get a special project to greatly improve the drainage there (and then keep it clear, which is easier if there's more capacity, anyway). It's not rocket science.

Thanks, it's always those lowered bridge underpasses that get it. There must be a way of improving drainage there.
