Overgrown vegetation growing into road
Reported via mobile in the Roads and Carriageways category anonymously at 05:21, Thu 15 May 2025
Sent to Oxfordshire County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7571651.
Verge and hedgerow growing dangerously into road making extremely blind bend - seriously impacting visibility - especially for vehicles, pedestrians, horse riders and cyclists using entrances from Silverdown and the nine properties there. Vehicles driving around bend too fast as they cannot see people waiting. Fast driving around bend also worse since council refused to re-instate white central road markings after resurfacing. Now very dangerous with this overgrown verge. Thank you.

Sorry too dangerous to take photos- as per previous message. It is a blind corner. Traffic comes too fast - overgrown vegetation currently making it worse.
