Investigating
Roadside Hedge Reducing Road Width
Sent to Oxfordshire County Council less than a minute later
The hedge and bushes are over growing in to the road. This is located on the left side of the road as you leave the village of Shrivenham. At points you can no longer see the kerb of the road. This extends into the road in some places by more than 6 inches, it is causing traffic exiting the village to cross over the centre double white lines into the oncoming traffic and has potential cause an accident when there are larger vehicles coming towards such as a bus or tractor. The issue has been reported previously and still nothing has been done to get the overgrowth cut or the fallen leaves and debris out of the road.

This is still an issue, last night I was faced with a bus coming towards me on the wrong side of the road caused by the hedge being so over grown. This is going to cause an accident at some point if it is not resolved.

No sign of the hedge being cut, you are making this a one lane road now and the buses come straight at you
-
Still not resolved, even more overgrown than when originally reported. Can't see the kerb, traffic is still encroaching into oncoming traffic.

Thank you for your report and apologies for the delay in a response. Could you please let us know if this is still an issue or if this has now been resolved? If this is still an issue, if possible and safe to do so, could you please provide any new images and detailed location information of the issue so we can get this raised for repair faster. Many thanks and kind regards

Yes this is still an issue, infact it has grown worse as hedges that are neglected tend to do. The last photos didn't achieve anything so not sure why I should make the effort to visit the area and take more for you to ignore.
