Overgrown verges

Reported via mobile in the Grass category anonymously at 12:52, Mon 30 June 2025

Sent to Oxfordshire County Council less than a minute later

The whole road is completely overgrown, it is making visibility very poor. With the Watlington road closed this road is now very busy all day with people cutting through instead of using the diversion route that is signposted. It is very dangerous pulling out of the side roads & driveways. There was a near miss this morning & a crash on Saturday. We have waited as everywhere is growing fast from the good weather but this road is narrow, busy with people driving fast due to the diversion, & now dangerous with the reduced visibility. Please could you either cut the grass back, & add a viewing mirror to the signpost for Clare so that when it does grow back it isn’t so urgent & the watlington road should be open again so it will not be so busy along there whole road. It isn’t fair to feel scared to pull out of a lane due to poor visibility.
