Massively reduced visibility due to vegetation over grown

Reported via mobile in the Vegetation (grass/hedges/trees) (NH) category anonymously at 11:18, Fri 26 May 2023

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 4599319.

Vegetation growth within the central reservation has reduced visibility to c. 150m, which is well below the desirable 295m for a national speed limit road.

On several occasions I have witnessed near misses as a result of vehicle crossing the east bound carriageway onto Potter Hill lane have pulled out in front of oncoming vehicles.
