Overgrown hedgerow obstructing pavement on main road - A367

Reported via desktop in the Vegetation overhanging a road or pavement from private land or property category anonymously at 15:26, Wednesday 10 June 2026

Sent to Bath and North East Somerset Council 2 weeks, 6 days, 19 hours, 56 minutes later. Council ref: 9596458.

Received from a Westfield resident - Good afternoon

Just a quick email to see if anything can be done with the hedge lines opposite Norton Hill rec area.

Obviously a lot of children and pushchairs walk along the route and it's pushing people out towards the road making it unsafe and a lot of thorns and stingers growing out towards the pavement. It starts by the church by the school and opposite the car park and goes all the way to the tuning for sun chemical.
