We knew beforehand that some of the underground drainage pipes needed replacing but the true extent was only fully realised after excavation work had started. I want to thank the works crews who have acted professionally and efficiently throughout, but also Sidmouth\u2019s residents. I understand how frustrating and inconvenient works like these can be, but despite this the works teams have said how supportive, courteous and complimentary residents have been throughout and they would also like to offer their thanks for the support and patience of Sidmouth residents.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\r\n\t<\/blockquote>\r\n        <div class=\"councillor-quote-aside medium-auto small-12
