    Meanwhile the hedge continues to grow - virtually all the footpath is now covered. This situation is putting pedestrians' lives at risk, it’s on a blind corner. Please BCC actually do something, not just pass it among yourselves. You have had this for over five weeks now.

    There's virtually no footpath left now. Please do something BCC. This was first reported over 11 weeks ago. If nothing is done a serious accident is quite possible. I am not the only person to have reported this.

  • It's been trimmed, so it's now possible to squeeze past where the lamp post is but the whole footpath should be clear. It won't be long before it will be back to how it was.
