Conifer & holly branches overhanging at no 48 Dartford Road

Reported via desktop in the Obstructions on pavements and roads category anonymously at 11:07, Thursday 23 January 2025

Sent to London Borough of Bexley 1 hour, 10 minutes later. Report ref: 7021053.

This has been reported before & no action has been taken. Large conifer & holly branches are overhanging the entire pavement, rendering it dangerous for pedestrians, especially those with a buggy or wheelchair. A branch caught my eye, today.

    This was reported in January and is now worse. As you can clearly see, the overhang is almost over the entire pavement & includes holly branches. This is dangerous & requires urgent attention.
