I have reported this already but apparently your engineers could not find the hazard. I would question whether the even looked because, as the photos show, the hazard is obvious.

Trees overhanging the footway to point where pedestrians have to duck at several points to be able to proceed. The branches are growing at pace in this weather and it is worsening by the day.
