Overgrown verge

Reported via desktop in the Grass category anonymously at 12:55, Thursday 25 July 2024

Sent to Oxfordshire County Council 1 minute later

Verge growth totally obscuring view of road, making crossing from bus stop to village even more dangerous than usual. Also obscuring bus stop for bus drivers who cannot see that someone is waiting

Council ref: ENQ241012332

  • The only way I can effectively do this is by standing on the A420! Or crossing it and then being unable to safely cross back, because of obscured visibility because of overgrown verge! I have taken a photo from the opposite side of the road but it won't upload - I have given it 15mins of trying

  • Still no change and just as dangerous, and dissuades anyone from taking the bus
