Over time, the usable pavement from North Leigh to Witney has been narrowed by around a meter in places as soil and grass encroaches on the pathway. The vegetation is establishing itself on top of the tarmac and will continue to spread and reduce the available space for pedestrians and cyclists until it is cut back to uncover the original surface. The whole distance between North Leigh and Witney is affected to varying degrees. Selected photos attached.
