Please ignore the report about 39 Haydon Park Road, the correct address is 39 Cromwell Road. Hedge has been allowed to grow over the public footway, narrowing the space available for the public

Updates

  • Thank you for reporting overhanging vegetation.

    If plants or trees on private land are blocking the street, we’ll ask the owner to cut them back. If they don’t do this within 28 days, we’ll write to them again giving them 14 days further notice and if action is still not taken we will arrange for the work to be done at the owner's expense.

    Did you know…?
    In 2024 we issued 469 notices to owners of property with vegetation overhanging the public highway.
