Overgrown bushes quite dangerous for children
Reported in the Obstruction (Not Vegetation) category anonymously at 09:56, Wed 1 July 2020
Sent to Northamptonshire Highways less than a minute later. ref: 2180620.
The bushes by the side of number 6 have now fallen and blocking the path, children have to walk on the road where cars come round the corner at a speed. My 5yr daughter has had 2 cars come quite close to her. This was reported last year but still nothing has been done, all the bushes are away from the fence and the path can’t be walked on.

Thank you for your enquiry. A letter will be sent to the relevant homeowner requesting that the overhanging vegetation is cut back. A revisit will be carried out 14 days after the receipt of the letter. The revisit has been carried out. A section of vegetation has been removed which is no longer causing an issue to the footway. However a letter has been sent to the relevant homeowners requesting for the vegetation further along Farmes Close to be cut back. A revisit will be carried out 14 days after the receipt of the letter.
