Scottish Water has issued an apology after “shocking” sewage which left locals feeling queasy appeared across an Aberfeldy street. A blocked sewer has, once again, caused a road drain to leak untreated sewage onto Taybridge Drive in the Highland Perthshire town.
A blockage was cleared on Monday, March 6. A further blockage occurred on Thursday, March 9. Residents encountered the unpleasant sight of effluent and used toilet paper flowing out of the drain again. "They [Scottish Water] should have cordoned off the area affected as soon as they found out about it to prevent unsuspecting cars and people from going through it. I haven’t heard anything about why it’s happening or how they’re trying to fix it.”
Top news stories today Cllr Duff said: “This has become more than just a blocked drain. To have happened so often in the same place in such a short space of time would suggest that there is a bigger problem here which merely jetting the pipes is not solving.
