Preventing access to traffic signal control box

Reported via desktop in the Overgrown or obscuring view (NH) category anonymously at 07:45, Thursday 25 September 2025

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8210909.

The vegetation is blocking both doors to the traffic signal controller box. the engineers require 24/7 access to both doors for routine and urgent maintenance. If the traffic signals were to go ALL OUT the engineer will not be able to restore the lights due to lack of access potentially resulting in a risk to life.

  • 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.
