Completely overgrown tarmac footpath, New Road, Oving

Reported via desktop in the Hedge problem category anonymously at 21:16, Tue 16 July 2024

Sent to Oving Parish Council 1 day, 12 hours, 22 minutes later. FixMyStreet ref: 6238396.

Despite my having reported it before,this tarmac path has been almost unusable for the last few years, causing people to walk on the road instead. It desperately needs the verges cut back to their full extent and the hedge/bank bordering it cut as well. Please can we have this work done before yet another year goes by.
