Fuming neighbours have told of their frustration over a 'massive hole' on their road, weeks after being hit by a "river of mud" coming down from a development. Residents on Orchard Close, in Burton Joyce, where 14 homes are being built, have voiced their fury over the "nightmare" development that some in the areas are saying has spoiled their retirement.
It comes as the Orchard Close developer has been handed a 14 day notice to fix the drainage system after a 'sea of mud' flooded the road, going into people's gardens. Enforcement action including shutting the site down could be introduced if the developer fails to do so.
Now, residents in the area have spoken out after discovering holes in the road measuring "around 10 centimetres deep and several feet in length". Councillor Michael Adams, Leader of Conservative Group in Trent Valley, said he made the discovery on Monday, September 1, when he wanted to check the flood on Orchard Close after rainfall.
