Important sign is badly obscured by foliage
Reported via Android in the Sign is obscured by vegetation category anonymously at 22:45, Sunday 15 June 2025
Sent to Gloucestershire County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7713952.
The signs shown in this photo are badly obscured by overgrown foliage. I believe that there is also a sign to show which lane to use, but I can't see it in the photo. The location is on the a49 northbound. This photo is a library shot from Google photos to help you identify the location, but it doesn't show how bad the current situation is.
It is a disgrace that important signs are not kept visible at all times. Please explain why the signs are not kept visible. Please arrange urgent removal of foliage.

If repair work is required, it will either be classed as urgent or will be put into a planned programme of works to ensure it is repaired as efficiently as possible.
In some cases a temporary repair will be needed, to make the area safe, then engineers will return to make a permanent repair.
