Verge not cut far enough up
Sent to Oxfordshire County Council 1 minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 6752430.
I understand you do one grass cut a year and it seems to have happened this weekend in Somerton . The verge in the photograph has not been cut far enough up to our fence, neither was it last year which means that by the spring/ summer the nettles, brambles and ivy are uncontrollable and they are invading our garden and any bushes and plants we have near the perimeter . Please can you come back and cut the whole verge so this does not happen and we do not have to continually cut our hedges because of invading brambles , nettles and ivy from the bank . This needs cutting more than once a year . It needs a second cut in the summer . This used to happen regularly and we didn’t have this big issue with invasion from the grass bank . Last summer the bank wasn’t cut at all and it made it very hard for motorists to see driving around a very sharp bend . Thank you

Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention. Oxfordshire County Council is not responsible for this problem as verges and cutting is this village is the responsibility of the Parish Council. Kind regards
