Flags secured with zip ties all around the roundabout

Reported via mobile in the Flyposting (NH) category anonymously at 15:25, Sun 23 November 2025

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8454484.

Multiple banners and flags hung along this highway, violating the Highway Safety Act 1980 and laws on encroachment, posing a source of distraction to drivers at high speed and potentially a direct obstruction in the even they are disconnected by high winds.

Updates

  • Thank you for contacting National Highways about flags.

    We have passed this to one of our local inspectors to confirm that this is on our property. Safety is our priority and we do all we can to protect those who use our roads.

    Items such as flags attached to a bridge could pose a danger to motorists on the road below and so may need to be removed for safety reasons.

    Kind regards National Highways
