Hard to see what’s coming into the road

Reported via mobile in the Restricted Visibility / Overgrown / Overhanging category anonymously at 13:19, Thu 15 May 2025 using FixMyStreet Pro

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7574120.

When crossing the road from richmond road to the back of Waitrose. There is a hedge which make’s it hard to see what’s coming round the bend. It’s dangerous as cars approach into waitrose very fast so there could be an accident as pedestrian won’t be able to see the car.
