Overgrown hedge

Reported via iOS in the Obstruction on road or pavement category anonymously at 05:58, Fri 1 August 2025

Sent to Bath and North East Somerset Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 7963172.

Overgrown private hedge is significantly encroaching onto the pavement at the above location. The vegetation is reducing the usable width of the footpath to such an extent that it is very difficult—if not impossible—for pedestrians with wheelchairs, mobility aids, or pushchairs to pass safely.
