Heavy flooding has led to calls for better drainage to be installed on a busy road.

Last week's stormy weather saw two sections of the A659 Pool-in-Wharfedale to Otley road completely submerged.

The worst-hit sections were east of Longlands Cottages and east of Caley Lodge.

Those parts of the road are regularly waterlogged and Bernard Mitchinson, chairman of community group POOL2020, says it is high time action was taken to tackle the problem.

He said: "Flooding on Otley Road is again causing delays, danger, disruption and economic loss.

"Will the parish council be requesting drainage works to permanently eliminate this problem?"

Parish council chairman Councillor Hazel Lee said she would be putting the question of improving drainage on the agenda for February's parish meeting.
