Approaching the one-way section the hedge obscures view in both directions
Sent to Oxfordshire County Council 1 minute later
The hedge needs cutting. It is dangerous. Traffic coming down the hill from Shrivenham cannot see traffic that has already started to cross. Traffic coming down the hill from Highworth cannot see vehicles that have already started to cross.

This problem has still not been sorted and there was an accident there today

It is too dangerous to stop and take photographs. The proximity to Friars farm, which is now used as an auction house is quite sufficient to identify where it is. I note that an accident was reported in this thread. The investigation is way too slow. Stop procrastinating and do something.

Thank you for your report. Landowners and occupiers are legally obligated to properly maintain vegetation on their property that is next to the public highway. If the vegetation affects the safety of highway users, it becomes their responsibility. However, in this instance, since the highway was not obstructed, there may not be sufficient cause to take further action at this time. We will continue to monitor the situation during statutory inspections.
