Overgrown vegetation on cycle/footpath

Reported via desktop in the Restricted Visibility category anonymously at 15:02, Monday 13 July 2026 using FixMyStreet Pro

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 9778946.

Overgrown vegetation is coming through the metal fence on both sides of the footpath/cycle path. This means it is seriously effecting visibility for pedestrians and cyclists. Also meaning you have to walk single file and are being pushed into stinging nettles when a cyclist comes past you or pedestrians are walking the opposite way
