Investigating
Overgrown hedges
Reported via mobile in the Obstruction (Road/Pavement) category anonymously at 08:46, Thursday 23 April 2026
Sent to Lincolnshire County Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 2889304.
This has been an issue for almost a year now. They are never trimmed back and block sections of the pavement. The path is on a blind corner and you have to step onto the road to avoid being scratched by the hedge and thorn branches. There is no path opposite to allow safe pedestrian access without stepping onto the road.
