The hedging / trees on the corner / approach to WOODGROVE ROAD have grown back making it tricky for vehicles turning right out of Woodgove to see on coming traffic from the Long Cross side & for them to see vehicles trying to exit until very late. Basically they could do with cutting down / back to make things safer.

Now hedges are growing:the vision to your right exiting WOODGROVE is even more impaired & traffic on KINGSWESTON ROAD travelling towards WOODGROVE cannot see you until very late.

Still nothing been done about cutting back hedging to make it safer for road users. This road is known for its ‘dangers’ hence local councillor / residents trying to get this stretch of Kings Weston Road reduced to 20mph to make it safer

As the bushes grow the issue is getting worse. It makes it very difficult if turning right out of Woodgrove towards Long Cross & for traffic on Kings Weston Road to see traffic coming out of Woodgrove until quite late.

Now into August still nothing been done about cutting down hedges to make it easier for drivers pulling out of Woodgrove especially if turning tight towards Long Cross & for drivers travelling from Long Cross end to see cars trying to come out of Woodgrove.

Witnessed ‘near miss’ at this junction this morning. Would definitely benefit for all road users safety hedges cutting down / back. Suggestions put forward before would also help… lines to mark out junction warning sign on KWR on approach to WOODGROVE from LONG CROSS end about ‘concealed junction’ 20mph speed limit on KWR from top of LC to Hallen Road
