Hello

This pathway is severely affected by overgrown vegetation, making it impossible to walk without stepping onto the road. This poses a significant health and safety risk for children and individuals pushing strollers. Numerous residents have brought this issue to my attention, and although I previously reported it, no action was taken and the matter was closed.

I am uncertain how the decision was reached that no action was necessary, as one must walk on this footpath to truly grasp the problem. If you are unable to locate the specific area or gauge the severity of the issue, please inform me when you are available for an inspection, and I would be glad to assist you in identifying the exact location.

Regards Cllr Dr Anup Pandey
