* Safety issue* Overhanging vegetation obstructing pavement

Reported via desktop in the Vegetation overhanging a road or pavement from private land or property category anonymously at 09:14, Fri 1 August 2025 using FixMyStreet Pro

Sent to Bath and North East Somerset Council 5 minutes later. FixMyStreet ref: 7963821.

The overhanging vegetation is obstructing the pavement forcing pedestrians into the road at the junction of Tennyson and Park Lane. The vegetation is also growing over the light warning drivers of the presence of the zebra crossing. This occurs every 3 to 4 months. Last time it took over 2 months for the council to act. Could this please be dealt with in a more timely fashion?
