On 3 March 2025, I posted: "This report replaces the old one which had been lost. However, it is still outstanding and I am seeking an update on the progress made by WNC with the relevant homeowners." I am still awaiting an update from Highways to something that the Parish Council informs me has been outstanding since June 2022. Please provide an update today.

On Tuesday 8 April 2025, Highways said that they would make contact with the landowner with a request to clear the vegetation in 14 days. As the Parish Council informs me that this has been outstanding since June 2022 I am still seeking an update and an explanation regarding enforcement.
