Andrews way, Fairford Leys...The hedge and Pavement on both sides of the road leading to the Playing fields is overgrown

Reported via desktop in the Open spaces category anonymously at 17:36, Tuesday using FixMyStreet Pro

Sent to Buckinghamshire Council 1 day, 43 minutes later. FixMyStreet ref: 8376645.

The road visibility from the pathway running behind Prestwold Way to the playing field car park exits are obscured. This is a serious problem with electric cars of driving schools and others being inaudible to pedestrians. Also the pavement on the South side of this road is overgrown meaning two people or prams must step into the roadway to pass or travel. This is the result of two years growth /Users/janlangford/Pictures/Photos Library 2.photoslibrary/resources/derivatives/B/BF505CDF-E184-4F85-9A41-BE69E8C68C71_1_102_o.jpeg /Users/janlangford/Pictures/Photos Library 2.photoslibrary/resources/derivatives/1/1BDC4A4A-24A0-4398-AA4F-737E717FAF9E_1_102_o.jpeg /Users/janlangford/Pictures/Photos Library 2.photoslibrary/resources/derivatives/2/2FA9B120-EAAD-44D2-B120-DC167348D0F5_1_102_o.jpeg

  • All wild birds are protected. This includes their nests (whilst in use or being built) as well as any eggs the nest may contain. Under the Wildlife & Countryside Act 1981 (as amended), it is an offence to:
    • intentionally kill, injure or take any wild bird
    • intentionally damage, destroy or take the nest of any wild bird while it is in use or being built (nests of golden eagle, white tailed eagle and osprey are protected all year round)
    • intentionally destroy an egg of any wild bird
    • intentionally or recklessly disturb certain wild birds or their dependent young while they are nesting (including disturbance of nesting young)
    Although no dates are legally stated between which hedges cannot be trimmed, cut, laid or coppiced, the main bird breeding season is recognised as being between 1 March and 31 July which we adhere to. Please note, if the issue reported is classified by our Highway Officer as an emergency, arrangements will be made to make the hedge safe for both road and pedestrian users in line with our Highways Safety Inspection Policy.
