The county council says it will be feeding back concerns to Severn Trent Water after being inundated with complaints about the recent closure of Ratby Lane, Kirby Muxloe.
There was significant disruption caused by the Severn Trent Water work, particularly at peak times, with the stretch of road closed in both directions as the utility company carried out work.
We’re very aware of disruption to the local community and we can only apologise, but we want to reassure residents that we’re urgently taking up this matter with Severn Trent Water.
We’re very concerned about the impact which the Severn Trent Water work has had on our road network. We’re going to investigate this fully looking at a number of issues, including permits, and seeing which financial penalties are open to us
