This still needs to be sorted, the vegetation is still overhanging and restricting the pavement. It’s forcing pedestrians to walk in the road on a busy A-road.

Only one month has passed, luckily noone having to walk in the road has been struck by a vehicle.
Vegetation has obviously grown......
So I guess all is well from the Highway Authority's perspective?

I reported this on the 9th July and yet the matter remains outstanding. This is a busy road and the pavement affords access to a Bus Stop and a central reuge.
I can arrange for this to be sorted by a Contractor and then send you the bill?
I note others have commented, is this not considered an issue until someone is hurt?

If Bathnes are supposed to be encouraging walking and using public transport this is NOT the way to do this. Keeping pavements free from overhanging bushes etc should be a high priority.

Still not resolved. Shall I cut it back myself and send you the bill or will i be prosecuted for damaging property?
