Ragwort

Reported via desktop in the Overgrown or obscuring view (NH) category anonymously at 18:01, Monday 22 July 2024

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 6261941.

The sides of the road and in the middle of the carriageway should be cleared of ragwort. All the farmers in the area pull their ragwort because it is a poisionous plant to animals but the Council's allow it to grow and the wind spreads the seeds back into our fields. Time Highways and Council did something about it.
