Platform Housing tackles sewage leak at Worcester flats

Residents of Oakridge Close have spent days trying to get the housing association to fix a leak outside their homes.

They say human waste has built up, preventing people from being able to access the flats.

One resident, who asked not to be named, said: “A raw sewage leak outside of flats in Oakridge Close has still not been dealt with by Platform Housing.

“Several residents complained about the leak for three days in a row and nothing has been done about it.

“There is human waste on the street and it’s stopping residents at times from entering the block.”
