Roadside hedgerow obstructing/overhanging the road

Reported via mobile in the Obstruction (Road/Pavement) category anonymously at 09:29, Tuesday 30 June 2026

Sent to Lincolnshire County Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 2896856.

The prickly hedgerow along this section of road heading north out of South Kelsey needs cutting back urgently as it is now overhanging the side of the carriageway and is especially dangerous for cyclists. Just needs cutting back. As a cyclist you have to move further into the middle of the road to avoid the foliage which is quite a narrow, bendy 60mph road.
