Vegetation growth blocking junction
Reported via mobile in the Overgrown or obscuring view (NH) category anonymously at 09:18, Sunday 23 June 2024
Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 6141934.
With the recent wet and now warm weather the vegetation has grown very quickly blocking the view onto the carriageway across the fast lane heading into Whitfield, with Silverstone approaching this stretch of the A43 will become alot busier during this period.
Many thanks for addressing this last year during the summer months, it does make a huge difference when it’s been cut.

Thank you for making your report. We have asked our inspection team to attend this location and assess the issue. If any work is needed, they will arrange for this to happen. Should no immediate work be required we will continue to monitor this during our regular inspections.
Although we always aim to complete repairs as quickly as possible, timescales do vary as we try to minimise disruption to customers by combining activities into single closures and always ensuring the safety of our people.
Kind regards National Highways

The vegetation has still not been cut and is still obscuring the view as you try to cross the busy A43. This will end with an accident if the grass and vegetation is not kept short for quite a distance so that we can see fast cars approaching.

As I understand it local residents have now strimmed the grass themselves due to the lack of performance of the highway authority!
