  The tree issues were on Horncastle Road not Edward Street. Our grounds contractor has resolved the issue of any footpath obstructions. I have emailed LCC highways about some branches not obstructing the footpath but overhanging the grass verges on Horncastle Road

• We’re sending you this message to thank you for clearing the vegetation from the footpath on Horncastle Road. Please ensure any overhanging branches have a clearance of 5m above the road and a clearance of 1m back from the road edge above the verge. Thank you for reporting this matter.
