Tree to front of The Ridings Singleborough
Sent to Buckinghamshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8114422.
I own the land next to a property known as The Ridings. The trees in the photograph are on local authority land and the bough marked in red and the branches in red are affecting my visibility to the highway from my land. I am happy to remove the bough and branches in the autumn or require you to do so.

A Highway Officer will carry out an initial assessment of the tree, emergency issues will be corrected or made safe at the time of the inspection, if reasonably practicable to do so. In this context, making safe may constitute displaying warning notices, coning‐off or fencing‐off to protect the public from the tree or other suitable action.
If the inspection team cannot make safe the defect at the time of inspection, then they will instigate the relevant emergency call procedures to ensure appropriate resources are mobilised cut back the tree which is blocking the signal, this may involve some traffic management and/or a cherry picker.
There may also be occasions when the issue reported will be classified as a minor defect and does not pose any risk to either the safety or the integrity of the highway, these are called minimum recording levels as specified in our Highways Safety Inspection Policy, in these cases no action will be taken.
