Overgrown trees from UWE Glenside colliding with double decker buses

Sent to Bristol City Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 6439903.
The trees in the UWE Campus have overgrown too much for the double decker bus traffic so they hit it every time.
In the last 2 weeks I have witnessed at least 4 large branches falling after collision so this poses a serious pedestrian safety issue - I actually saw a school child luckily only with a large soft green leafed branch fall on him to no harm but the risk here is significant!
Solution: trim the trees and enforce these buses to keep to the 20mph speed limit (they always speed on this 20mph road).
