A FLOODED underpass will be fixed next week, according to the council.

The underpass in Bullbrook, on the Running Horse roundabout, has been flooded with sewage after an issue with residual waste.

Bracknell Forest Council has confirmed that a team will begin on the site next week. 

A statement on the council Facebook page read: "We are aware of a flooded underpass in the Bullbrook area. We have already tried to pump it out but owing to difficulties with the pumps and residual waste in the flood water, we were unable to completely drain it.

"We are now waiting for specialist contractors to pump it out completely, this will enable SSE to then repair the usual pumps to stop flooding from reoccurring.

"Specialists are due to start this work next week; we apologise for any inconvenience caused in the interim."
