Residents will be relieved that a road sweeper from local Boswell Bros at Ford has been clearing the gutters along Stratford Road this morning. The mud had affected anyone walking along Stratford Road and in particular near the junction with St Lawrence Close.
SGN are clearing up the site and plan to return in March 2025: see this later News article:

Temporary traffic lights control traffic on Stratford Road whilst SGN continues to replace gas mains in Stratford sub Castle.
The traffic lights are re-sited according to the location of the works and at present (21 November) restrict traffic between The Portway and Castle Keep.
The estimated completion date has now been extended to 20 December.
On the section of Stratford Road that has been completed, it was necessary to disconnect the gas supply to some (but not all) properties for a few hours with the relevant householders being notified the previous day. If this should affect your property, once the supply is reconnected, a Gas-Safe Engineer will attend to check that boilers and other gas appliances are safe.
