The pathway is severely overgrown with vegetation, including brambles growing at approximately head height. Pedestrians are unable to use the pathway safely and are being forced to walk in the road to avoid the vegetation.

This is particularly dangerous as the pathway is located on a bend. The overgrown vegetation significantly restricts visibility, making it difficult for pedestrians to see approaching cars and buses, while drivers may also have limited visibility of pedestrians.
