Vegetation overgrown on pedestrian pavement

Reported via desktop in the Vegetation overhanging a road or pavement from private land or property category anonymously at 10:48, Tue 12 August 2025

Sent to Bath and North East Somerset Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 8013506.

Report 6682887 was closed because it was supposedly resolved, however walked past and nothing had changed. The walking path is covered in stinging plants and its not walkable.

Pedestrians are walking on the road and visibility is already difficult for cars because of the construction which is already taking half the road.

  • I was just about to report this, but was very disappointed to see that this was reported 5 months ago and has not been resolved. There are now huge overhanging branches that are full of thorns. I have multiple scratches along both sides of my car because of them. One of these scratches cannot even be removed with tcut.
