Grass and weeds too high on the splay

Reported via desktop in the Grass cutting category anonymously at 20:05, Wed 17 May 2023

Sent to Buckinghamshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 4567373.

The grass has been cut on the A412 on one side of the road but not the side where there is a footpath lower than the road and is causing problems for walkers, also the splay at the junction of Village Road and the A412 is overgrown and a cyclist was nearly knocked off his bike as you have to pull out into traffic driving at 50mph to see if anything is coming. Another accident waiting to happen. Why can this not be done when the grass was cut, not the parish council as on a 50mph road
