No visibility to right at roundabout

Reported via desktop anonymously at 12:24, Monday 5 June 2023

Sent to Bristol City Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 4633116.

Visibility to the right when entering the roundabout is obstructed by persistent weed growing up from the kerbline, not helped by overgrown vegetation behind the crash barrier. This is a recurrent problem that I (and others) have to report year after year. Eventually enough is done to make the situation just about tolerable through the winter until things start to grow again. A long term fix wouldn't take much more effort than the bodge job you usually do. It would save you money and reduce the likelihood of a fatal accident at this location which would lead to questions being asked in court about why repeated reports of an unsafe condition were ignored.

  • Still open, via questionnaire, 12:31, Monday 3 July 2023

  • Partly fixed in that the buddlea has gone but vegetation behind the vehicle restraint system is still growing unchecked and so there is no visibility to the right at the give way line.

  • Very pleased to see that this has been fixed properly with the offending vegetation cut right back to ground level for a sufficient distance back from the give way line. Fingers crossed this should address the problem for a few years now. Well done and thanks to all concerned.
