Reported via desktop in the Footways and Pavement damage category anonymously at 10:43, Wednesday 20 May 2026

Sent to Oxfordshire County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 9480613.

On an already narrow footpath that runs right alongside a bumpy road where drivers already rive too fast there are weeds and grass growing from the verge kerb onto the footpath and encroaching on it, making an already narrow footpath even narrower and forcing children in particular on scooters and bikes from having o ride nearer to the road. It is also unsightly, please send someone to spend an hour clearing it, thank you!
