      In the UK we’ve seen grates/covers etc… stolen for scrap; our local council have decided to just replace them with wood it seems, as whenever new ones go down, they’re missing within a few weeks. The wood is unsightly, but it doesn’t go missing.

      wouldn’t surprise me if the same has happened here.

      It’s been like that since at least 2007, looks like we’ll know for sure if it’s going to get fixed in just another 12 years.

        There’s an underground drainage structure less than 100’ away that this swale is connected to. They could have put a gutter inlet in the road and run a pipe instead. How incredibly lazy and cheap…
