As the issue is not currently posing a safety issue, no work instruction has been raised by the officer, however the gullies in this location will be cleansed on the next routine visit but will continue to be monitored during routine safety inspections. Staffordshire County Council routinely cleanses over 180,000 highway gullies. The majority are cleansed every three years but major roads and areas that are prone to flood are cleansed more often."
