Hedge is completely overgrown around my property and encroaches on public footpath

The council recently cut the hedges opposite my neighbours property opposite no9 but left the adjoining hedges surrounding my property totally overgrown even though I have previously complained about it before. The hedging prevents my neighbours and I accessing the service path to the back gates of properties no11 and 15. It is so overgrown the thorns from brambles present a dangerous hazard. It is a mass of brambles and overgrown weeds some of which are now forming into trees. It has not been cut for 3-4 years. It was previously maintained by the council. I have lived here for 10 years and I keep trying to trim the worst brambles on the side of the path as my elderly neighbour needs the path to put out his bin, I cannot and should not have to do this, it is not my land. It is insulting that the council did half a job and left the bushes surrounding my property again even after I have lodged a complaint before and furthermore where the bushes have been cut by the council that area surrounds property of a parish council employee.
