Trees overgrown - blocking light into properties and causing obstruction on the road

Reported via mobile in the Restricted Visibility / Overgrown / Overhanging category anonymously at 13:02, Sun 4 June 2023 using FixMyStreet Pro

Sent to Northamptonshire Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 4629244.

The trees haven’t been cut back for nine years. Resulting in restricted light into properties and obstructions on the road. Many lorries and double decker buses hit the branches as they drive down the road, resulting in branches and debris on the road and foot path. The sap from the trees ruins the cars parked on the side of the road too.
