Overhanging vegetation - Crofton Road

Reported via desktop in the Overhanging Vegetation from private land category anonymously at 17:46, Fri 12 July 2024 using FixMyStreet Pro

Sent to Bromley Council 2 days, 21 hours, 17 minutes later. FixMyStreet ref: 6223526.

As you are walking towards the railway bridge from Orpington Station main side, the pavement becomes narrower. To the left is a high wall and, on top of the wall are shrubs, weeds and trees. This stretch has become very unkept and is in desperate need of attention and a hard cut-back. Some of the trees may be overhanging from the station. Please could this be looked into and remedied.

Many thanks for help.

  • This is still very much a problem walking under the bridge, thorns and nettles come across the narrow pavement.
