# Traffic Signals urgent safety issue, 252B Harewood Road, Bishopdale, Christchurch 8053, New Zealand

Bishopdale, Christchurch · filed 17 February 2025 · report 5889243
https://www.chch.live/report/5889243

> The hydrangeas at this intersection have grown too tall, blocking the view of oncoming traffic. In the mornings, I drive from Merivale Mall toward Bishopdale Mall, and it’s difficult to judge when to enter the roundabout to continue onto Harewood Road toward the airport. Fast-moving cars from the opposite direction on Harewood Road toward Farrington Ave often come close to colliding with vehicles from Harewood Road past the mall. Would it be possible to trim the hydrangeas to improve visibility
