Public footpath 99 - Overgrown vines/branches causing a nuisance and hazard
Sent to London Borough of Bexley 43 minutes later. Report ref: 8112879.
The two households either side of this public footpath have allowed their fruit vines/trees to overgrow into the footpath to become a public nuisance and hazard to users of this footpath. Aside from being a nuisance having to brush past this overgrown vegetation (particularly in wet weather), the fruit that has dropped off these vines/trees presents a slip/fall hazard. This situation has previously been reported to Bexley.
