Grass verges need attention too high to see over

Reported via desktop in the Vegetation (grass/hedges/trees) (NH) category anonymously at 10:26, Wed 7 June 2023

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 4641870.

Grass verges on slip roads both north and south bound are extremely high and causing bad visibility to oncoming traffic moving at speed. This has caused near misses on a number of occasions.
