Tree obscuring the red section of traffic light

Reported via mobile in the Traffic lights (NH) category anonymously at 17:44, Friday 2 May 2025

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7516325.

Witnessed a school pupil almost being knocked down by a car who did not stop on red. They swerved to miss child. On returning home this afternoon realised you cannot see red signal as covered by tree branches. This is extremely dangerous. Could have caused a fatality easily this morning.
