Sent to Lincolnshire County Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 2853756.
Trees and hedgerow overhanging the road in many places along the edge of Ropsley Rise Wood. Drivers therefore driving towards centre of road to avoid the foliage and with visibility poor in several places this is a distinct hazard. This issue has been reported previously but no action to cut back the foliage has resulted. If this is not in LCC remit to resolve directly could LCC please contact to relevant landowner to take the necessary action Thank you
