Flags hanging from the motorway bridge

Reported via desktop in the Structures (eg bridges, fencing, noise barriers) (NH) category anonymously at 23:41, Thu 21 August 2025

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8058790.

St George flags flapping about, hanging from the motorway bridge. Worried they are a distraction to motorists and/or could fly off and land on a vehicle's windscreen and cause an accident. They don't seem that secure.

Updates

  • The flags have been removed.

  • Thank you for your report. We will insect the location. Currently, our approach is to leave the flags in place unless they are offensive or cause a hazard. We’ll continue to monitor this and remove the flags when appropriate.

    Kind regards,

    National Highways
