    Water over Benham St. continuously. Public work came out to clear roadside culvert couple week ago. Thanksgiving ice was 20'- 30' long across entire road. Several time cars were heard sliding. This problem is on going for several years and really needs to be addressed once and for all. Thank you, Ray Wetmore

    354 and 366 Kenwood Ave between these two houses there is always a very large pool of water. In the summer it is stagnate water in the winter it is a sheet of ice. I can’t believe people who live in these houses don’t complain. It needs drainage.

    There is a significant amount of runoff water that comes from the street onto the property. This started happening a few years ago, after the paving/refinishing of the road.
  • 100 Carroll Rd Hamden, Connecticut, 06517 - Hamden

    I reside at 100 Carroll road, we have a dangerous ice accumulation that happens every year throughout the winter and it is getting worse, I don’t know where the water is coming from but the ice builds up in front of my driveway extending from our mailbox down the road and it extends further out to the street, this happens from the first freeze point through the winter and the buildup continues to form solid block of ice creating a dangerous condition. Please direct me as to who I can help with this, thank you for your help thank you for reading.

    Please contact me for additional help.
    Regards.

    My house at 25 Arcadia experiences severe rear yard flooding basement flooding and with heavy rains basement flooding, This is a town issue, there is no curbing on a part of Battis road which abuts my rear yard, it is not my property but another homeowners on Battis road, there is no curbing on the North side of the road where the open grass area is and the run off flows freely into this grassed area and floods my reay yard and sometimes my basement and my neighbor's as well. This needs to be addressed, I do not know what the person who ownes the property says, but thats not my xoncern nor problem, this is a city roads and drainage issue which needs to be addressed, very soon, as I can not have this continue. I would hope and expect that someone will look into this and be in touch with me on this very important issue......
    Pictures attached...........

    Also, by 34 Arcadia, there is a very old cast irin catch basin grate set in asphalt. The one across from it was replaced yeats ago, but does not remove the water because of the crown in the road. This old catch basin has been reported for clogging and floodiing constantly today as well, the roadway floods and nothing is ever done, the catch basin is very very old and Needs to be vacumed cleaned and replaced.. I have many pictures of my yard, my nasement, my neighbors yard and the street basin... but your system will only allow 1 upload

    This is an ongoing issue for years the front of my house floods which has ended up with water in my basement and my side walk has completely froze over in the winter. My driveway and sidewalk have eroded. This needs to be handled now.
  • 21-23 Davis St Hamden, CT, 06517, USA - Hamden
    Since Hamden Hall cut down all the trees on the old Roche-Dinkeloo property (planned home of the Hamden Hall Middle School), there have been terrible drainage issues at Davis Street just west of the bridge over the reservoir. (Not to mention the terrible loss to the public of this forested area...) No trees, no water absorption. A site engineer and landscape architect ought to have been consulted. During rain events, Davis is now basically impassable due to flooding.
  • Fans Rock Rd & Leatherman Trl Town of Hamden, CT, 06518, USA - Hamden
    STILL a problem. Drain is in the WRONG place and has been forever. Requests were made to have it moved when both streets were paved. It wasn't. The ice floe has started and today, there was no sand or salt spread so anyone coming in does a slid and anyone going out has to "gun it" before the ice. PLEASE address this issue before an accident occurs.

    engineering department stated a few years ago they were going to replace the storm drains across from my house. during rain storms drains clog and water flows down my lawn and a large pool of water stages in front of my front porch. this causes leaks in my basement and all the rugs get wet. also this has damaged my retaining wall. I need someone to come and meet me in regards to this problem. Videos and pictures regarding this issue will be provided.
  • Mcdonald'S - Hamden
    The sidewalk along 2320 Dixwell Avenue at McDonald's floods every time it rains. Runoff continues to the corner and drains onto the road. The nearest storm drain is farther back past the tree.
