  • Update on your report:

    I can confirm that this location is included on our programme of works, and this issue will be addressed as part of those works. Timescales for these schemes will be be published in due course.
    We don't believe the tree is dangerous - the branches in the verge and road are very small branches, which is fairly standard, especially during high winds. We have identified that the canopy needs lifting over the road to 5.2m, which will prevent vehicle strikes in future.

    Many thanks,
    Central Bedfordshire Council - Highways
