  • Ongoing issue this is even worse now. Only got space for one person to walk down. Need to walk on the road if there is multiple people. Sharpe branches sticking out some are nearly overgrown on to the road. This has been the same for sometime and hasn't been looked after. Broken branches have fallen on the path as well making it harder to talk on the path this needs attention asap as its a safety hazard.
