Red Cap Lane Boston
Reported via iOS in the Sign (unlit) category anonymously at 10:14, Mon 23 June 2025
Sent to Lincolnshire County Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 2847495.
Vegetation on the approach to the level crossing (Horncastle Rd side) is obscuring signs and Red traffic lights at level crossing. I’ve cut back a small amount from in front of signs but the hedges need cutting back when the nesting season is over. Also large trees by crossing are over hanging carriageway and branches obscure level crossing lights from some angles.
