FIXMYSTREET IN NR13 4LQ
The following problems have been reported on Fix My Street within 2 miles of NR13 4LQ:
Overgrown hedge encroaching on pavement, 15th March
The hedge to nr 32 needs to be radically cut back as it is overgrowing the pavement and is well beyond the boundary line. It is markedly restricting the width of the pavement on this busy road and is causing a hazard. It appears to have been cut back tight within the property but then pruned outside the boundary such as to allow it to overgrow outside it, presumably so the pruning doesn't kill it. This is wrong and been going on for several years.

Dangerous blind bend, many accidents, 11th October
This bend is blind from every direction of travel. There is enough existing space to simply line-paint a mini roundabout junction here with no physical road alterations needed, only line paint. It’s at least 13m across at its widest point and I’m not sure why one hasn’t been implemented already?
There has been many accidents here (mainly from people speeding so fast towards Blofield that they crash into the curb and bushes on the other side, I have pictures of the curb condition to highlight this) making it a very stressful nightmare to turn into our road (highfield avenue) with my two babies in the car in order to get home (3 houses up from junction) I feel I’m putting their lives at risk every time I come home and this causes myself and my neighbours much needless stress. Please seriously consider this alteration for the welfare of my babies and my neighbours children.
The problem has been here longer than I have lived here (6 years) and since I’ve known the area (since birth, 39 years) Kind regards

Strumpshaw steam museum sign obscuring on coming traffic, 8th December
This sign is positioned in such a way it causes a complete blind spot to on coming traffic from Acle when trying to turn into Yarmouth road. With traffic approaching at speed and in two lanes it is incredibly dangerous to cross. There heartbreakingly was a fatality at this junction just last week and we use this junction regularly, You have to try and bend backwards and forwards to see around the sign. It appears on Google that this sign didn’t used to be there so, can this be moved or removed before there is another tragedy!
