Footpath from Wingfield court to Saunders piece

Reported via desktop in the Pavement and Cycle path category anonymously at 09:32, Thursday 9 January 2025

Sent to Central Bedfordshire Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 416769.

The footpath above is very overgrown and only just passable, I reported this but your response was very disappointing saying you could do nothing about it, Just to let you know I walked this path twice yesterday and I would now say that the path is extremely dangerous. I think it is only a matter of time before someone falls and breaks an arm, or leg or hip, and if they then sought compensation from the council you could be paying thousands of pounds, Please address this path's problems immediately It is a disgrace and a danger to the public
