“This is a common sight after rainfall throughout the estate.
“Often residents cannot gain access to their homes through the front door and pedestrians are having to walk a distance to get around flooding.
“I hope this will be acted on ASAP.”
A Department for Infrastructure spokesperson said: “DfI Roads shall inspect the existing drainage system at Ballyoran Park and clear any obstructions as necessary.”
