Hedges between property lines and road obstructing view when exiting the junction

Reported via desktop in the Hedges category anonymously at 16:38, Wed 10 April 2024

Sent to Oxfordshire County Council 1 minute later

When exiting Orchard Coombe onto the B471 visibility, particularly to the south, is badly obstructed by the hedgerow. It is particularly dangerous to the south as vehicles are frequently overtaking and on the wrong side of the road. There have been a number of near misses. In addition pedestrians walking south on the B471 are forced into the roadway on a stretch of road notorious fro speeding.
