A community leader has blamed a lack of drain cleaning as to why Kesgrave has seen such bad flooding recently.
The area has seen torrential downpours in the last few weeks which has seen Main Road in Kesgrave submerged underwater at times.
Photographs show the road and footbath completely underwater, with vehicles creating big waves when travelling through.
County councillor Debbie McCallum, who also runs the Bell pub in Kesgrave, said: "I am communicating with drainage people to see what solutions we can come to in the key areas.
"The rain [on Monday] was a bit unprecedented, wasn't it? It was sort of four weeks rain in one day. I mean, my cellar alone was six inches deep of water.
"The problem is it's never draining away enough, so it doesn't take a lot of rain for it to come to the top again.
"What you get is you have the heavy rain, the water drains away, but it leaves all the dirt the mud and the silt on the road.
"As a resident, I believe that in the 25 years I have lived here, that the drains appear to not be cleaned as regularly.
"I think what we had to realise is this weather is becoming more of the norm. I would personally like to see more drains cleaned more regularly."
Mrs McCallum stated that she would raise concerns over the flooding with Suffolk Highways after heavy downpours hit Kesgrave at the beginning of July.
She reiterated that she is trying to make progress with Suffolk County Council on finding a solution.
