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.
