Overgrown trees branches hanging over my garden and also blocking sunlight.

Reported via mobile in the Overgrown or obscuring view (NH) category anonymously at 13:17, Fri 29 September 2023

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 5044427.

I have recently moved into a house backing onto junction 12 of the M56. The trees need some serious attention, dangerous branches hanging over the slip road and peoples gardens. I have spoke with my neighbours and these haven’t been trimmed back in 10 years. There is also hundreds of saplings growing around the junction and dropping into our gardens causing a constant battle in removing them. Please can someone pop down and have a look. Thanks

Pete
