The hedges are overgrown and obscuring the view.

Sent to Oxfordshire County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8032966.
The hedges along the side of this road have become so overgrown that they are forcing cars off the road onto the grass verge on the other side and causing the tarmac to break up. Apart from this, it’s a narrow road which has made it increasingly difficult for cars to pass each other, causing scratched paintwork on the cars and often resulting in cars having to reverse quite a long way back up the street - which is dangerously and which would be avoidable if the view down the street wasn’t obscured. It would allow drivers to see oncoming traffic further down as has always been the case before the hedges got so large.
