View of traffic approaching junction blocked by bushes.

Reported via desktop in the Vegetation (grass/hedges/trees) (NH) category anonymously at 16:27, Sun 12 March 2023

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 4304411.

'Sudden' arrival of bridge traffic on the roundabout (which never halts as practically nothing coming from their right) requires slip road traffic to stop for safety, meaning this line is now backing up into motorway at peak times. Quick solution - cut back bushes and small trees so that flow can be better - ie traffic can be seen approaching way back on the other side of the bridge. Long term solution - make both lanes from motorway available for traffic turning right to dual carriageway on bridge, which may mean making roundabout smaller. Many thanks.
