Private hedge taking up 2/3 of pavement

Sent to Bristol City Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 5848479.
The hedge extends massively onto the public pavement, taking up about two thirds of the entire pavement and it makes it very hard to get past with a pushchair and would make it impossible with a wheelchair or large buggy

The hedge now takes up more than half of the pavement and is obstructing pedestrians. I tried to walk on the pavement with a trolley behind me and couldn’t, and had to go on the road.

Hedge has been part trimmed up to 6ft height (hedge is now 8ft tall), but the pavement remains partly obscured/blocked - the pavement is still incapable of being used properly (too narrow, hedge still covers 40%). The "no parking" sign hasn't been uncovered either, and is at risk of being fully hidden unless full action taken.
