Beverley Way
Thames Water came yesterday to clean the drains and gullies. They sucked out all the sewage and sludge and left it all on the road and pavement.
Thames water didn't suck up the sludge into their septic tanks, they just left it all on the street.
Customer said it's very smelly and unhygenic especialy in this hot weather, all the neigbours are affected by this hazardous waste.
Thames water have left it there.
Customer called the council who said it's not their problem, it's Tfl because it's on a red route.
