Hello, thank you for taking a look at my request.
Please can someone from the council take a look at this ongoing problem with the conservation area by Malago Walk that is only getting worse.
To start, there has been a broken fence along this verge area (which has been broken for a while now, maybe months). Someone at some point put some orange fencing there which implies it was going to get fixed, but no one has ever fixed it. Those orange fences are now more clutter on the road. In addition, because of this broken fence, the hedge is coming through and is now so far onto the road, I can no longer see where the edge of the road is, making it harder for cars to pass through.
Thirdly, a tree further in is at an angle over the same road. It either needs straightening, or removing if it's completely broken, as all it could take is one windy day for that to fully fall onto the road, blocking the street.
Honestly the state of this part of the road is not nice to look at, and I'm concerned long term this will only get worse if not rectified. Please can somebody at the council sort this out, and let us know if residents on the street are allowed to do some minor clearing to keep it maintained.
Please see attached images for more information.
Thank you.
