At one section in particular (in the photos) the hedge/trees are protruding so far out into the road that vehicles have to stop to allow the oncoming vehicles to pass. This is also causing erosion of the opposite verge and increased potholes. The Council are concerned that this issue will not be able to be fixed ahead of bird nesting season if not looked into shortly. This was reported last year following the cutting of some sections but has not been resolved. Many thanks for organising (PC)
