Ok compadre, I'm not going to dispute the literature. When there are chokes on a property, residents phone the council who usually phone us, although they do have their own vactors and will sometimes do it themselves. If the choke occurs beyond their property, i.e. under the pavement and roads, Scottish Water have to deal with it. These jobs tend to be West Lothian, East and West Dunbartonshire, Renfrewshire, Lanarkshire and Ayrshire. I don't know if GCC have their own vactors. I believe Damm carry out a lot of the gulley works on trunk roads, so they presumably have a contract with the government as stated in your link. If it is GCC responsible for that part of road, they will deal with Damm or somebody similar but it's odd that it's always an issue because they are based round the corner. My company do a lot of the Hillington estate but only privately owned car parks and such. Again, we're always told that any problems further downstream than the extent of the private property is a Scottish Water issue and nothing to do with us. |
