Reported via desktop in the Vegetation overhanging a road or pavement from private land or property category anonymously at 11:39, Saturday 10 June 2023

The hedge at this location has not been cut back regularly or properly maintained through the years. This blocks the visibility splays at the junction with Broadway cul-de-sac and leaves very little space for pedestrians to walk along the footway between the hedge and the on-street parking spaces. The hedge needs to be cut to the back of the footway to avoid people (especially elderly residents) walking dangerously on the carriageway with no clear visibility.
