Overgrowing hedgerow is making walking hazardous.

Reported via desktop in the Hedge Oversized category anonymously at 18:33, Monday 1 June 2026

Sent to Island Roads 13 hours, 27 minutes later. Enquiry ref: 16318270.

The hedgerow on the Northern side of Kemming road between Kingates Lane until the start of the footpath is creating dangerous conditions for walkers. We are faced with brambles and tree branches that cause us to walk some distance from the edge of the road, with the speed of traffic coming round the bend from Whitwell towards Niton and oncoming vehicles are trying to pass the pedestrians often ends up inches to spare and at an unsafe distance. Cut the hedgerow, enforce the 30mph speed limit or provide a foot path please.
