Overgrown hedge

Reported via mobile in the Shrubs/Trees category anonymously at 14:20, Monday 23 March 2026

Sent to Bristol City Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 9171027.

These overgrown hedges are dangerous for pedestrians, especially during school runs. Children and parents have to walk in the middle of the road, cause the pavement is occupied by branches sticking out
