Land grab

Reported via Android in the Other Disability Access Issue (NH) category anonymously at 17:47, Tue 12 August 2025

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8015721.

I reported over 6 months ago, a company using the side of the motorway for storage. The reason for raising it was, the land is not owned by them, vehicles causing a distraction including diggers, created a hard core base for storage, ramp to drive vehicles down. This was reported on the BBC and even afterwarnibg, they are still there.

The police need to ne sent as they are causing a huge distraction to motorway drivers, trading standards or council need to be sent, and company prosecuted for not complying with council.

Updates

  • Has this been fixed - off course not. Anyone driving past can see this and the authorities know it is still outstanding. Urgent council and police intervention is now required to prosecute and fine these guys for creating a danger close to the motorway infrastructure
