  • Some hedges have been trimmed to 5-6ft. There are still wild elder bushes that overhang the pavement preventing cyclists from using the path. Cyclists and pedestrians are forced to step onto the road to avoid the hedges especially at school times. A cyclist fell off their bike yesterday when navigating up and down the kerb, there was no oncoming traffic at the time fortunately.
