Fixed
Outside 23 South Road, Amersham
Sent to Chesham Bois Parish Council 1 week, 1 day, 5 hours, 41 minutes later. FixMyStreet ref: 6308020.
The owners of no. 23 South Road, Amersham are refusing to trim the thorns and overgrown bushes outside of their house that has all grown now wildly onto the public footpath. The bramble thorns rip my children’s legs every morning when we walk them to school and now the condition is so bad that only one person can pass that section of path at a time, forcing pedestrians into the road just to be able to pass by. Please can you assist urgently with this problem.
