Sent to Central Bedfordshire Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 14003.
The hedgerow at of this property is extremely overgrown to the point you have to walk in the road to pass the property. When they park a vehicle, it is on the path also. I have an adult son who is blind, this makes his walk to the shops extremely hazardous. The hedges to the side of the property are also overgrown. This needs cutting back to property boundary so as not to take up almost all of the footpath.
Not only dangerous for my son but pushchair / wheelchair users. It is not possible to use the footpath due to this.
