General
Road gullies, which require a hinged grating on top are designed to collect surface water from roads, parks, etc. Because of the high outlet position, the gully collects any silt or debris as the water flows via the gully outlet into the drainage pipe. Gully sumps must then be periodically cleaned out.
Gullies can be manufactured in different sizes and depths and there are two main types of gully as shown in Fig 1 and Fig 2.
Concrete Road Gullies to BS 5911 PT 230
Round Road Gullies have an advantage over
square or rectangular gullies because the outlet
pipe can be pointed in the desired direction, yet
allowing the grating to fit parallel to the kerb
which can eliminate outlet pipe fittings. See Fig 3.

Trapped Gully (Fig 1)
Because of the trapped outlet, these gullies are used to prevent odours escaping from the drain pipe, which may be the case if the gully is connected to a combined storm and foul water system. They may also be used where there is a risk of oil, which will float on top of water in the gully, preventing it from entering the drain pipe.
Untrapped Gully (Fig 2)
This gully has a straight outlet and is lighter than the trapped gully. It is used where the risks do not occur.
