Is it? TfL responded to Mr Wright so apparently it is!

Red Routes are the responsibility of TfL in all respects, and that includes
drains, or at least the entries to them from the road. Where was your quote
from?

It's from the Mitcham & Morden Guardian (which is why I didn't mention
it at first!)
A recently-reopened pub now called Blue was flooded by the Wandle, and
the owner reckons he would not have been flooded had the drains been
maintained well.
The pub was once the Royal Six Bells.
