Wharf Lane uneven pavement

Sent to Wooburn and Bourne End Parish Council 2 days, 18 hours, 39 minutes later. FixMyStreet ref: 7882328.
Reporting on behalf of some of older residents who aren’t too tech savvy. Constant struggle with walking on the pavement on Wharf Lane because of very uneven pavement and overgrown bushes/trees. My 80 year old mother and the local postman have both commented on it as well as many others. People end up having to walking in the road which as you can imagine is very dangerous. The pathway is almost near impossible for wheelchair users, walkers and prams too.
