Complaint after "sewage" flows across busy Denaby road

A DISMAYED driver was left turning up his nose is disgust after coming across “raw sewage” on a main road.

The motorist contacted the Weekender on Tuesday morning after driving through a “tide” of smelly water on Doncaster Road at Denaby, which he believed was coming from the Yorkshire Water treatment works alongside the road.

“It must have been four or five feet wide,” said the man, who asked not to be named.

“The car in front of me drove through it and covered my car with dirty water — it’s like raw sewage.”

The flow had been stemmed by lunchtime on Tuesday.

A Yorkshire Water Spokesperson said: "We were made aware of a leak at 9am by a customer. We attended and fixed the leak on the same day.”
