Parking sign obscured by vegetation
Reported via mobile in the Sign Obscured (NH) category anonymously at 10:45, Friday 29 May 2026
Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 9525689.
The sign for the parking place next to Highlands on the A31 is obscured by trees. This leads to even more cars/ lorries parking in the pull in leading to my address ( Old Brickyard Farm, BH24 3HP ) which is at 14/2. This is an ongoing issue as despite Highways insisting drivers will see the no stopping sign they continually park in the pull in obstructing our view pulling out on to the very fast A31 and causing ( dangerous ) issues when pulling in. The fact the P sign on the parking place further down can't be seen just exasperates the situation. This will only get worse in the summer. Please can the trees be cut back by the parking place so at least there is a chance some ( people will STILL park in the pull in despite numerous requests for Highways to do something ) people may see it and NOT park illegally in the pull in. Thank you.
