Overhanging shrubs, reducing width of road.
Sent to Bromley Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 6172421.
Please note these shrubs have not been cut for between eighteen months and two years. Overhanging shrubs, reducing width of road, can cause damage to passing vehicles. Also Hanley Place, road sign not visible. Shrubs overhanging the kerbs by several feet, so road sweeper unable to get close to kerb. Also, shrubs at the side of number seven are almost to the tob of the 6ft fence, please cut shrubs as low as possible to allow maintenance to fence. Shrubs opposite number 1,3,5 and at the side of number 2 please cut shrubs low to allow street sweeper to come in and please cut buddlea down as keeps catching on cars.

Resident has called back as the ongoing issue with the bushes at the end of the cul de sac is very over grown and is causing vision problems when pulling out of the junction, the cars are been damaged as they drive past as it takes over a lot of the road, The road sign is cover up by this as well. This issue has been ongoing since June when the first pictures where taken its grown a lot more since then and needs urgent attention, they would like to have this shrub removed and some smaller shrubs planted

Please can someone from Bromley Council deal with the cutting back of shrubs in Hanley Place, Beckenham, BR3 1UR. We first reported this in June 2024. The road signs to Hanley Place are not visible anymore, due to overgrowing shrubs. Also, one very large shrub is catching the cars as we drive out of Hanley Place. It would good idea if the operatives bring approximately four small shrubs with them to replace the huge out of control buddlea, which is catching cars on the way out of Hanley Place. I have also rung street services today again! to report this problem.

The bushes have now been trimmed as reported by the resident, however, they state the bushes are cut in very uneven fashion and states it does not look professional at all. They have also stated the other bank of bushes has not been touched at all.
Please can someone come back out to finish off the job?

Resident called to request an officer attend the address and ask for the shrubs to be cut back these have been cut back by LBB for the past 30 years, crews had attended but had said they are not able to complete the works as the tools they had were blunt and they didn't want to damage the fence. please can this be looked into as soon as possible
