Flooding problems on Pound Lane in Hardwicke could soon be coming to an end.
Residents have been plagued by flood waters in their gardens because of a drain that has been blocked for more than a year.
Their plight was highlighted by The Citizen last month.
Richard Vaile, whose elderly father has been affected, said: "I had a call to tell me that the drains have been dug up and the problem has been found.
"Some new connections have been made to cure the problem. We just hope it is successful.
"I would like to thank The Citizen for its help."
