Drainhole damaged

Reported via mobile in the Drain Cover - Missing or Damaged category anonymously at 09:45, Fri 8 July 2022

Sent to TfL less than a minute later. TfL ref: FMS3660301.

Drive over this drain and 5mins later car tyre warning system . Rear drivers tyre inside has been shred. Luckily I had a runflat tyre which lasted until I got home. Had the tyre replaced at a huge cost. A few days later drove past the same spot and noticed that someone has covered the drain with a hugh flat metal plate protecting others from same damage as I had seen.
