Decision

1) Lincolnshire County Council have investigated the issue and determined that it does not present an immediate safety hazard. There is currently adequate visibility of the zebra crossing for traffic approaching from both directions. However, if the tree branches continue to grow, they may begin to obstruct visibility. Tree maintenance is the responsibility of the City of Lincoln Council. Should the issue worsen, please report it directly to the Council at https://www.lincoln.gov.uk/report-it.
