This street's story: 26 city catch basins and 21 manholes serve this block. A blocked catch basin is the usual reason a curb floods like this.

The case we sent

Report details · AI-written, reviewed by the reporter

Large standing water pool approximately 2-3 meters long extends across the residential street and sidewalk at this location, with a visible catch basin nearby that appears blocked or inadequate, creating a pedestrian slip hazard. The stagnant water and surrounding asphalt wear suggest drainage failure in an area with aging infrastructure.
