Hedge means risk to school kids

Reported via mobile in the Hedges category anonymously at 21:05, Tuesday 28 October 2025

Sent to Oxfordshire County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8349964.

This extended hedge onto the footpath (although well trimmed) reduces visibility at this key junction for pedestrians of cars and vice-versa. This is a busy route to school, to houses and the doctor’s surgery. Almost daily there are incidents caused by one not seeing another due to this hedge restricting visibility. A cut back of a foot or two (see marked photo) would be enough.
