Safety hazard!

Reported via desktop in the Unauthorised objects on street lighting assets category anonymously at 18:51, Monday 26 January 2026

Sent to Oxfordshire County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8773396.

Can someone please remove these flags from the lamp posts asap? I almost crashed into a parked car today because I thought an animal was running across the street today. This was a shadow caused by a flag, flickering across the street. Why would anyone put flags just below street lights? This is dangerous!
