The hedge is obstructing the foot/cycle path alongside the road. There are further areas of obstruction further west, from the lower Clopton are to the roundabout with the Brimingham road out of started. People are having to divert off the path into the verge or onto the A46 to avoid these obstructions. In places the are low hanging branches that could lead to injury if a cyclist failed to spot then in time.

This is still an issue and makes cycling dangerous. It needs cutting, mowing and sweeping.
