Sharp bend sign - still dangerously obscured
Reported via mobile in the Sign is obscured by vegetation category anonymously at 17:03, Thursday 8 May 2025
Sent to Gloucestershire County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7541262.
Thank you for attending yesterday and cutting back some of the vegetation but I’m afraid to say one of the sharp bend signs is still dangerously obscured. I have attached a photo that shows the view from a motorist’s point of view approaching the bend. i.e. the sign is still largely hidden and vegetation needs to be cut back much further.
