Overgrown and neglected hedge

Reported via desktop in the Hedges category anonymously at 13:28, Thu 25 April 2024 using FixMyStreet Pro

Sent to Oxfordshire County Council 7 minutes later. FixMyStreet ref: 5898303.

Over the years I have observed the hedge on the other side of Cogges Hill Road being trimmed (usually twice a year). However the hedge on the side of the road indicated has not/never been trimmed. Both hedges are outside the property boundaries and both have pavements. Can you explain why this is not part of your maintenance routine please.

  • I reported this on 25 April with no response as yet. The hedge is now encroaching on the footpath making it difficult for people to get by.

    The first photo is Manor Road side of the Cogges Hill Road where the hedge is cut back on a regular basis. The second photo is the Cogges Hill Road side where, as far as I know, has never been trimmed. Both in same road, both have paths, both back onto gardens with a fence garden side. Can you explain why one hedge gets cut back and the other doesn’t?
