Hedge allowed to grow over verge prevents clear visibility for vehicles exiting property. Visibility is already limited by the effects of the bend in the road. - Reported last summer and judged (in February) to need attention, but has not been remedied. Situation worsening as hedge grows further.

Council ref: ENQ251045950

    New photo added to show further growth beyond the boundary line (marked by the gatepost), making it impossible to see oncoming vehicles.

  • Hedge has been trimmed minimally (removing only some of this summer’s growth); the problem still remains as previously- needs to be cut back off the verge to stop it blocking visibility. Currently this is an accident waiting to happen.
