Extremely overgrown hedge in garden of 517 Newark Road, South Hykeham Lincoln
Reported in the Visibility at junction or bend category anonymously at 15:36, Thu 2 July 2020
Sent to Lincolnshire County Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 373106.
Overgrown hedge obscuring 30mph speed sign, Thorpe Lane street sign and cycle sign completely. At the junction of major road obstructing visibility for vehicles turning out of Thorpe Lane onto Newark Road and for vehicles approaching Thorpe Lane from Newark Road the street sign is completely covered by the hedge so there is no indication visible of which road it is. 30mph limit is also completely covered by the hedge. The hedge is a very dense and extremely tall one and is also overhanging the pavement and narrowing it for pedestrians.
