Customer said that there was no swale, and water runs over the sidewalk into his driveway.
Customer would like the snow cleaned off of the storm drain in front of house and the one across the street.
Customer wants snow cleaned off of the storm drain in front of the property.
I own the property at 809 S. Fess. The sidewalk in the front of 809 S. Fess is sinking in right above where the storm drain runs underneath it. There is a crack where you can see a huge cavity opened up under the sidewalk. I am afraid it may cave in. The storm drain must be leaking under there. Please check it out. Thank You!
Water is running down side of the house from the sidewalk in front.
Asphalt is falling in around storm drain and needs sidewalk repaired.
I don't know if this is a city, IU, or even state issue, but the storm sewer just north of the entrance to the IU Outdoor Pool on Fee Lane is completely clogged. This creates a pool of standing water that covers the east sidewalk and part of the road. It's a possible breading ground for mosquitos. It also forces pedestrians to walk on the road since the west sidewalk is closed due to construction.
The storm drain that sits in the curb cut for my driveway is sinking. I can see fallen bricks through the grate. The road surface and sidewalk are both crumbling around it. I am worried that the drain grate may collapse.
On the south side of Winslow at the west side of Piccadilly there has been progressive erosion where the drain pipe goes under Piccadilly. Whenever we get a strong rain for five or ten minutes the ditch backs up on the east side of Piccadilly and does not flow freely under the road. The erosion mentioned has noticeably progressed this year and if left unabated the road will eventually be at risk of breaking at its edge. Also, be aware that the heavy rains flood the east side ditch and form a pool over the sidewalk which also spills out onto Winslow. We can see this from our home. I had a couple of pictures of this to send you, but you only gave me the ability to send one. If you'd like them, please let me know by email. Thank you!
