Over growing shrubs

Reported via mobile in the Overhanging Vegetation from private land category anonymously at 18:01, Fri 13 June 2025

Sent to Bromley Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7706657.

The trees and shrubs are encroaching over the entire footpath making it difficult to walk past others, particularly students on their way to Babington School without having to walk in the road. This is along Elmstead Lane near the junction with Wood Drive.
