# Overgrown Vegetation, 258–296 Main Rd, Canterbury, Christchurch 8081, New Zealand

> Yesterday I had a bike accident due to the bushes that have grown into the cycle lane. I noticed the bushes had got bad a few weeks ago, and cyclists are having to merge into car lane to avoid them. Many cyclists ride side by side along this section so the bushes cause an even higher risk. This is also a highly used cycle route and popular for bunch rides. The bushes trees and branches along this whole stretch need to be cut back immediately. They are a constant danger to cyclists.
