Tree is damaged problem
FixMyStreet ref: 6411186.
Traffic lights and previous signage obscured by trees
Cllr: See email below - I travelled this road yesterday and can confirm that coming from the Cheltenham direction you can't see the traffic lights until you are very near them.
Vegetation needs to be cut back not just at the traffic lights themselves please but also in the run up to them so that drivers can see in advance.
I reported vegetation obscuring traffic lights and signage on A40 at Shipton Olliffe at the end of July via FixMyStreet... (Received update that work had been done)...I have just been up to check and from the photos you can see nothing has been done.
(Full email with photos attached)
