Road sign obscured by overgrown hedge

Reported via mobile in the Hedges category anonymously at 14:50, Wednesday 24 September 2025 using FixMyStreet Pro

Sent to Oxfordshire County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8208712.

I have reported this before and it was supposed to have been cleared by now. The road sign in the junction of Bloxham Road with Wykham Lane is obscured by an overgrown hedge/tree. The issue is that there is a height restriction on the road and this information is covered up. There may well be an accident here if someone is not local.

Council ref: ENQ251060124

  • It hasn't been cut back but it is not as badly obscured now that the leaves and foliage are dying off for Winter. I suspect in Spring it will be completely covered over again. The photo is it this morning. You can now see the warning sign about the low bridge at least.
