Footpaths around upper James Close car park are obstructed

Reported via mobile in the Hedge problem category by Anna Crabtree at 19:34, Monday 1 December 2025

Sent to Marlow Town Council 1 day, 19 hours, 16 minutes later. FixMyStreet ref: 8488454.

Red Kite believe that footpaths are the responsibility of the Council. Paths around the edges of the upper James Close car park (further from Churchill Drive) are in need of maintenance and cutting back as they are damaged underfoot and impassible due to overgrown hedges.
