The hedge has continued to grow and is encroaching on overhead cables above

Reported via desktop in the Restricted Visibility / Overgrown / Overhanging category anonymously at 15:54, Thursday 29 January 2026 using FixMyStreet Pro

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council 1 month, 1 week, 16 hours, 15 minutes later. FixMyStreet ref: 8796377.

Previous visit by your contractor failed to remove branches etc which were left in a large pile on land adjacent to my property. It may well now be housing rodents. The hedge has continued to grow and is encroaching on overhead cables above. These works were previously carried out correctly but are now in need of urgent reviews
