Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 5701318.

12th march 2024 about an hour ago a man who said he was a tree surgeon said he and colleagues would be cutting trees down on the banking of the motorway behind the houses off manchester new road(a664). told me they wouldnt be coming in gardens but could he review my garden. he asked did i want ivy on the motorway fence in my side of garden,taking down for £40. i said no thankyou. he said work would commence in 45 minutes time. well there doesnt appear to be any work being done and im wondering if this is a scam to gain access to private properties? please could you check this out it is a matter of concern? thankyou.
