New hedging has being planted in highway boundary, causing access problems
Sent to West Northamptonshire Council 4 months, 1 day, 1 minute later. ref: 6062729.
A new hedging has been planted next to the main site exit leaving the site
This is been planted on highways land and is obstructing my vision from exiting my site
My car needs to basically sit in the middle of the road before I can see if the road is clear, and I can see there beening an accident very soon
I would like a highways inspector to attend the site and deal with it as soon as possible

At the moment it is a very dangerous access that has been blocked by hedging being implanted in highway
On highway land
It is a health and safety issue as well as an accident waiting to happen
