Vision around the bend obscured by foliage that is grown at least a meter out into carriageway

Reported via desktop in the Vegetation (grass/hedges/trees) (NH) category anonymously at 19:35, Sat 30 July 2022

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 3718780.

Vision around Ben obscured by foliage that is grown at least a meter out into carriageway. The foliage has grown so much, that it has grown onto the carriageway and comes well over the white line etc. by at least a meter. Its dangerous, as it blocks your vision. Additionally, it forces you over as you come around the bend, potentially increasing chances of collision with vehicles merging off of the roundabout to go over the bridge.

  • Hello, you advised that the vegetation would be cut back within 28 days. Months later and this has still not been done. The danger to road users remains and has in factors increased, as the foliage overhang has increased further with summer growth. Please can this be resolved.
