Residents and parents at a Nottingham primary school are becoming increasingly frustrated at a path that fills with water and makes it almost impossible to walk through. A path that surrounds Westglade Primary School in Top Valley has been described as a 'lake' during winter months and heavy rainfall, causing issues for pedestrians who use it.
Rab Purmanan, 45, a deputy nurse who lives opposite the 'flooded' area, says it gets so bad sometimes he can't use his car. He said: "When it gets really bad I can't use my car as the water goes on to my driveway and can get quite high, so I have to stay inside.
"I avoid the worst parts and it's worse when it rains heavily. Something needs to be done, an improved drainage system or something, it doesn't make sense."
