A number of blocked drains on Tadcaster Road are thought to have been caused by tree roots.

Cllr Stephen Fenton recently reported three blocked drains near to the entrance to Little Hob Moor. Investigations by council officers have indicated that a likely cause of the blockage is tree roots in a Yorkshire Water sewer.

We’ll be pressing for action that will enable the drains to be unblocked  as soon as possible.
