Banners on the bridges

Reported via mobile in the Flyposting (NH) category anonymously at 09:42, Fri 22 August 2025

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8059638.

There are multiple England flags attached to the bridges along the m65 from junction 7-10.

With the weather these are highly dangerous, likely to come off and cause an accident by obscuring a drivers view. It is also quite distracting given the tone and connotation behind the aggressive movement putting these flags up.

Updates

  • Thank you for your report. We will inspect 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
