Detroit Water & Sewerage Department PLUS

Street cover is packed solid with dirt and causes regular basement backups due to drain not being maintained and able to allow drainage. Whenever showers are taken, water does not leave the basement promptly. Whenever there is rain, the backups become worse and water pools at the curbside and remains in the street because of blockage. The city of DETROIT water Department or the responsible city Department needs to do their job and get this matter resolved promptly. My personal belongings are at risk of being damaged and destroyed due to this ongoing issue. Please contact me direct at 248-943-1411 regarding this issue or contact me direct at the address listed (5943 Marseilles, Detroit, MI 48224).

WATER FLOODING STREET HANDICAP PERSON TRYING TO GET INTO THE HOME FROM THE STREET

still blocked and have to kayak across the street

Since the rains have begun water has backed up onto the middle of Sheridan Street it is now deep enough that it is coming up onto the sidewalk.

potholes surrounding the sewer have overwhelmed the sewer and has caused the alley to food, blocking garage access.

Every time it rains the street gets flooded. The drain is clogged. There is nothing clogging the drain right now.

I keep reporting this issue, and you eventually close the ticket, although it took over 3 months for you to close on 8/29. Of course it rained today, and the same thing happens after each rainfall. A HUGH lake effect in front of my house along with at least 4 other neighbors homes. I thought you guys were going to try to resolve this another way, as whatever is being done is not working. Please advise.

We just got new sidewalks on our block when the cement truck moved in to pour the cement the sewer drain collapsed! Please help fix this as this is our better drain on the block!
