Fallen tree blocking south bound lane of Lower Road

Reported via mobile in the Dead/diseased tree category anonymously at 08:44, Thu 23 November 2023

Sent to Buckinghamshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 5244106.

A fallen tree is still partly blocking the southbound lane of Lower Road (abeam Claydon End). It is extremely dangerous and I have witnessed three near miss head on collisions just this week as it is difficult to spot until very late. It has been there so long now that it is even more disguised due to fallen leaves and branches and furthermore the road is unlit. It is only a matter of time before the fallen tree causes a serious head on collision.
