Pam Johnson Way has very overgrown vegetation including dangerous thorny overhanging branches (I walked into one of these in the dark and cut my arm), I understand it used to be maintained by the friends of Dallington Village until the council stopped them, now it is neglected the same as the rest of Northampton.

How is this not responsibility of council, the overgrown vegetation is on council land?
