    I have updated my report with some attached photos to show how narrow the overgrown weeds and making the pathway and the corner that it is on as you can see in the photos only so much of the hedge has been cut back other then the corner where it is only enough for people to walk single file with 2 younger child it makes it more dangerous as you have to have one behind and one in front on that corner this is not ideally safe

  • We appreciate you taking the time to notify us about the overgrown vegetation on the footpath at this location, and we’re sorry that on this occasion the time frames to cut back the vegetation is taking longer than we would’ve liked. We’re currently behind with our vegetation maintenance work in the area and apologise for any inconvenience or frustration this may cause you and the community. Our inspector is in the process of prioritising areas that require additional urgent remedial work whilst our maintenance teams look to catch up with the vegetation maintenance works within the wider area. We will continue to monitor the situation and hope to resolve these issues soon.
