Overgrown vegetation at Old Stratford roundabout on corner of A5 and Towcester Rd

Reported via mobile in the Restricted Visibility / Overgrown / Overhanging category anonymously at 10:36, Friday 6 February 2026

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8851523.

This vegetation is on Highways property and obscures drivers' view of pedestrians crossing Towcester Rd to Black Horse housing estate. Also pedestrians are unable to see these cars coming round from the A5. This is extremely dangerous and a couple of times has nearly resulted in road traffic accidents.
