Once again the footpath behind Shetland Close in Borehamwood is flooded and impassable, owing to a couple of hours of rain.

The ditch running along Barnet Lane blocks up and overflows.

This occurred on Sunday morning and again on Wednesday. Did I miss the monsoons?

Many people use this path to access Barnet Lane, including bus stops for commuting, Morrisons, and going to and from Farriers Way estate. It is genuinely dangerous and if someone infirm fell, it really is deep enough to drown in.

It needs to be sorted before the real bad weather comes.

Has anyone else had to buy waders to go shopping?
