This vegetation has been cut back in recent weeks, but not enough.

Sent to National Highways 1 minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7884919.

This vegetation has been cut back in recent weeks, but not enough. You have cyclists having ridden uphill from Rushmere Road or Bedford Road wanting to take advantage of the downward slope heading towards Riverside. Cyclists travelling in the other direction from Riverside, increase their speed to tackle the ramp up. This includes the numerous illegal e-bikes that use this path. The overhanging vegetation creates a blind corner and is a collision risk, and needs to be cut back much harder or removed

  • 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.
