A413 between Chalfont St. Peter and A40 junction

Reported via mobile in the Cleaning/Sweeping category by Michael Saalfeld at 21:58, Tuesday 4 February 2025

Sent to Buckinghamshire Council 13 hours, 27 minutes later. FixMyStreet ref: 7087018.

Long stretches of the road edge kerbs are obscured by debris - soil, leaves, twigs, branches and even the odd dead badger. In places grass is growing into the road. This is true of both carriageways and on both sides. It does not help with the safety of this notoriously dangerous stretch when the edges are invisible. Needs more than just sweeping.
