Massive tree cracking pavements and parking bays

For the last few years this has been causing a problem I notified Bromley council about this problem they gave me a reference number but things are continuing to greatly worsen, there are massive cracks appearing which has effected my front of my property, if you follow where the cracks are they have now come onto my property 61 Barham road it has distorted my pathing and everything seems to sinking, my whole front garden has moved as the surrounding areas just not mine but other properties too, I’m really worried if this tree is not sorted it will effect my property as others have been. I would like Bromley council to address this problem and not ignore it as it seems that it has been. I’m really getting greatly concerned now, I bought my house of the council and have lived since the houses were built and seen the decline happen yearly. Please can you sort this problem out. Remove the tree please

I understand that my neighbour reported a large branch hanging dangerously over our two gardens & directly behind our garden fences,in the park land , it’s been reported as dealt with , by the council, but it most certainly hasn’t been dealt with to date . Iam very concerned for the public walking their dogs falling victim to the heavy branch crashing down on them . Many thanks.
