Hedge Cutting for Road Safety – Ingoldmells
Keeping hedges and overgrown vegetation under control isn’t just about improving appearance, it’s a key part of road safety, especially on narrow lanes and blind bends where visibility can be reduced. Our team recently completed hedge cutting work in Ingoldmells, helping to improve sightlines and keep the roadside clear for both drivers and pedestrians.
Improving Visibility on a Blind Bend
This location required extra care due to a blind bend in the road, where approaching traffic may have limited time to react.
By cutting back the hedge line and removing excess growth, we were able to:
- Improve visibility around the bend
- Reduce the risk of vehicles meeting unexpectedly
- Help keep the road edge clear and safer to navigate
Traffic Management with Banksman Support
Because this was a live roadside environment, safety was the priority throughout.
To keep the public and our team protected, we used a Banksman to support the work, ensuring traffic was:
- Clearly alerted to the works ahead
- Guided safely past the cutting area
- Kept moving in a controlled and safe way during operations
This added layer of monitoring is especially important on bends like this, where vehicles may appear with minimal warning.
