Hedges from the bus top down to the jolly boatman overgrown. Grass at neck height, hits my kids in the face. Path so overgrown you have to go into the road to get past. Not safe on 50mphnroad with children on bike.

Grass is now so high we can’t use the path as it’s above head height in places and the nettles are stinging my children and hawthorn hits us in the face. We now can’t cycle to school without taking the children on the bike into a 50mph road.

Please can we have an update on when this will be fixed. We are having to drive to school and nursery now because we can’t get through. Recent rain has caused the grass to totally obscure the path…

In 2021, the County Council will carry out one general cut a year across the whole of the county's road network. This includes visibility splays at junctions and grass verges one meter back from the kerb.
At present, we are unable to give exact dates for individual areas as this year’s programme is currently being assembled. However, we are dealing with visibility splay sites in accordance with safety requirements of individual sites as they are reported to us (or observed by Highway Officers).
Thank you.State changed to: Investigation complete
