Speed signs covered up by trees

Reported via iOS in the Non-illuminated sign obscured category anonymously at 10:15, Tue 29 July 2025

Sent to Shropshire Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 14181643.

Please see attached photo. I have circled where the 30mph signs are. As you can see, the one on the left is just about visible. The one on the right is totally obscured by trees. Around 25 yds back there is a 40mph sign so drivers see that and think the rest of the road is 40 all the way down past Asda. The signs need to be cleared and visible please.

  • Hi. Thanks for cutting the trees back. It’s a lot better than it was but they’re only really visible when you get close to them. The one on the right is still slightly obscured by a tree in front of it but it’s a lot better.
