Overgrowing vegetation on footway from bridge leading to station….

Reported via desktop in the Obstruction to Highway category anonymously at 09:52, Tue 29 October 2024

Sent to Bromley Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 6670562.

…resulting in significant narrowing of available footway for pedestrians walking to/from the station.

Please can this be cut back on both sides to other sides of metal fencing to ease pedestrian free movement to/from station and footbridge over the A222/Summerhill.
