Overhanging tree in road - cars swerving

Reported via desktop in the Restricted Visibility / Overgrown / Overhanging category anonymously at 15:53, Fri 29 December 2023

Sent to Northamptonshire Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 5366057.

Every winter this one tree overhangs road and cause cars to swerve. It has not been cut in the summer by the council preffered services suppliers (local farmers?) as its becomes more upright in the drier months.
