Fire Risk/Accident risk? Hedge/verge needs cutting

Reported via mobile in the Vegetation overhanging a road or pavement from private land or property category anonymously at 15:51, Friday 4 July 2025

Sent to Bath and North East Somerset Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 7810140.

Fire Risk/Accident risk? Hedge/verge needs cutting - very poor visibility at this busy lane junction and all other ones in immediate area. Lack of highway junction visibility splay consideration on a stretch of road perversely under national speed limit, lack of basic maintenance on appropriate frequency over multiple years makes this a serious accident risk spot.

Long grass verges are also an obvious fire hazard in heatwaves.
