I have reported this several times but nothing ever gets done. The bushes are growing out over the pavement and block over 60% of the pathway. this forces people to walk in the road. Just needs to be cut back hard.

  • The council never fixed this so a local resident cut back the bushes and solved the problem. Nearly a year of council inefficiency solved by one person spending a couple of hours.
