Overgrown vegetation makes it dangerous to pull out from the site

Reported via desktop in the Restricted Visibility / Overgrown / Overhanging category anonymously at 13:48, Wed 30 July 2025

You can't see right when pulling out of the Mick George/Anglian Water site due to overgrown vegetation. Makes it dangerous as you have to partially pull out to see if anything is coming
