At the corner of South High Street & Southdowns Drive. Tree limbs are hiding the stop sign. Susan was at the intersection and was almost hit when a driver failed to stop at stop sign because its so hard to see.
Regarding uReport Case #183611: Nothing has been done about this issue (last communication was on 5/1/2023 by Michael Stewart). The issue: What looks like Bushes growing on the northwest corner of the intersection at High St and E Southdowns Dr are obstructing the view of cars on Southdowns wanting to pull out onto High Street. We cannot see cars in the southbound lane of High St until the last second before they reach the stop sign. Many drivers on High St don't come to a complete stop UNLESS they see a car on Southdowns. Please cut the bushes back so those of us on Southdowns can see what's coming from the north and cars on High St can see us further in advance, BEFORE they reach the stop sign.

WHEN THE TREE WAS ORIGINALLY PLANTED IT WAS VERY SMALL, BUT NOW THAT IT HAS GROWN LARGER IT OBSTRUCTS THE VIEW.
