Weeds blocking view of a5

Reported via Android in the Overgrown or obscuring view (NH) category anonymously at 20:49, Saturday 9 May 2026

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 9427114.

The weeds are too high on the right hand side of the road leading from Norton at the crossroads. I am disabled and am shorter and I can't see to cross the A5 (at all from norton to whilton locks). There have been fatalities on this road and I am scared every time I cross it. Please can you cut them so that it is safe again. Thank you.
