• Thank you for your report.

  Vegetation maintenance is conducted through our yearly cycle of works, referred to as cyclical maintenance. Our goal is to address all locations requiring vegetation management at least once per year, if deemed necessary. We oversee an extensive road network across the south of England, and for areas identified as requiring more frequent attention, we’ll implement additional maintenance outside of our cyclical schedule. This ensures that any vegetation posing a safety risk is appropriately managed by our maintenance partners if necessary.

  Vegetation maintenance often necessitates lane closures, which can impact traffic flow. To reduce disruptions, we strive to integrate vegetation management with other maintenance activities wherever possible. While this approach minimise traffic inconvenience, it may result in longer intervals between maintenance periods, allowing vegetation to grow naturally during this time.

  Our team inspected this location on 7 July 2025 and confirmed the grass is less than a foot high with no problems with sight lines.

  We will continue to monitor the area during our regular inspections. Should any safety concerns arise, then we’ll arrange the necessary remedial work outside of our cyclic maintenance if required.

  Kind Regards
