Footpath side hedges need cutting

It is surprising that no one has agitated to get the roadside hedges cut- the footpath is extremely narrow. Year after year it seems to be me that gets the action. How about our Town Councillors or Secretary of Residents Association trying to secure the hedge cutting?

To be fair the Airport did cut there hedge without being asked as my post of 11th October 2013 will testify. But we are now getting to a stage where it is dangerous for pedestrians to use the footpath.

Hedge cutting is the responsibility of adjacent land owner according to the 1982 Highways Act. AND the hedge cutter should TIDY UP after and not leave it to the Council Tax payer to pay for the road sweeping!
