The hedge needs cutting as it is growing out into the path resulting in us not being able to get a wheelchair through without going on the grass reported before with no further action I nearly tipped the wheelchair over having to go on the grass which is unacceptable.This could have caused a serious accident and could be avoided by cutting back the hedge. This has got worse over the last 2 years and eventually you won’t be able to use the path.

  • What’s going on please? These hedges are completely overgrown now and obstructing the pathway. I’m not sure someone in a wheelchair would be able to use the path at all now.

  • I walked this route on Sunday 3rd November 2024 The work has not been completed and the hedgerow nearly covers the whole footpath. Not only making it difficult to transverse for wheelchairs/push chairs but also dangerous to pedestrians when walking at night as the overhanging branches can catch your eyes and face.
