Overgrown hedge

Reported via desktop in the Obstructions on pavements and roads category anonymously at 09:05, Tue 4 November 2025

Sent to London Borough of Bexley 6 hours, 50 minutes later. Report ref: 8373540.

Hi there,

The pavement between 128 North Cray Road and the roundabout on the northbound route is overgrown, reducing the pavement to less than half of it's original width. This means pedestrians and bicycles have to go on the grass verge or stop to let the other one through.

Could you please trim it all back?

Thanks Kurt
