Reported in the Parks/landscapes category anonymously at 17:49, Mon 24 August 2020

Sent to Cherwell District Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 2261345.

On the verge on the left-hand side of old car road south of the entrance to Fairview Road has not been trimmed or maintained all year. This was previously reported and confirmation sent that it was programmed to be actioned but it has not been done. All of the vegetation behind the Fairview Road sign has grown up in recent years due to lack of maintenance and needs trimming back extensively as it is now encroaching on the Telegraph pole.
