Grass obscuring visibility of crossing
Reported via mobile in the Grass category anonymously at 14:06, Tue 10 June 2025
Sent to Oxfordshire County Council less than a minute later
As every year the grass is not yet cut, despite the area having been visited 100 or so meters away to cut grass for safety around the roundabout.
The grass is a similar height to the bollards which were placed to increase visibility of the crossing for drivers.
Ks1 and 2 children are shorter than the grass and trying to cross to get to school. It's a 60mph road. The crossing must be made visible when when roundabout is.
