It's possible your local council will insist on shearing down all the

All the way up a bank on a straight road? They cut the verges (approx 3

where the growth does obscure visibilty but otherwise they are left
alone. Our council, Cumbria, also trys to take into account the growth
and cycles of plants when deciding when to cut the verges.
