Overgrown Branches

Reported via mobile in the Other Street Tree Problem category anonymously at 09:16, Wednesday 1 July 2026

Sent to Merton Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 9713285.

First reported over a month ago - the tree branches and leaves are overgrown on the whole street and in some places causing obstruction when walking on the pavement.. Additionally due to the lack of parking on the street, sometimes the cars have to park right next to the tree trunks and some branches rest upon the cars. Please fix this, if this was Wimbledon you would have sorted it by now..Every year we have the same problem and Merton can't be bothered to look after the majority of it's residents.
