Overhanging hedge (not adjacent landowners) on road

Reported via mobile in the Hedges category anonymously at 10:19, Wed 24 July 2024

Sent to Oxfordshire County Council 1 minute later

The hedge is now overgrown onto the road, meaning it has become a narrowed road, single lane. It is also on a blind bend so risk of collisions…. Plus the hedges scratch cars- please could they be cut back?

Council ref: ENQ241012180

  • In addition to the hedge, the verge and undergrowth have expanded across the road and have now reduced a two-lane road to a single-track lane.

  • Any update please? I can see the new 20mph sign has been put in this week, within the overgrown hedges - the hedges have been cut back around this post only, the rest is still like a jungle!!!! Have been awaiting a response since July…..
