Turkeys on the road

Reported via mobile in the Obstruction (Not Vegetation) category anonymously at 11:00, Mon 8 December 2025

Sent to Northumberland County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8516158.

On this blind bend with a blind summit heading northbound there are often turkeys from the farm loose on the road forcing drivers to brake suddenly or tak evasive action to avoid hitting them and potentially damaging their vehicle. Especially now with the current defra restrictions, these birds should be contained in a roofed enclosure and not be free to obstruct the road.
