The Smoot footpath
Reported via desktop in the Tree blocking a street light category anonymously at 09:49, Wed 30 November 2022
Sent to Lincolnshire County Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 438757.
Overhanging trees blocking streetlighting and leaf debris all along footpath making it very slippery and a hazard. All conifers along this path need trimming right back and to be honest are planted on public footpath property not on homeowners property so should be removed as it should come under Highways CC.
