Danger to life/potential accident

Reported via desktop in the Tree/hedge restricting available highway category anonymously at 11:44, Monday 20 April 2026

Sent to Lincolnshire County Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 2888969.

I am asking now for the trees to be cut back because last year it took 5 1/2 month to get the work done only when the leaves where falling. from the entrance of Newlands going north restricted viewing of speeding lorries coming around the bend, at the moment we have about a 5 second gap maybe less

  • If you are putting our life at risk before the birds I suggest to you that you reduce the speed limit to 40mpg or give us access to rookery lane (my address) and no access???? birds do not nest on branches over hanging on to the road with HGV'S running at 60mpg, the first 2 years trees were cut back in the summer so why the change?!
