  • Investigation: Ongoing (Reported to a third party) - Good morning. Following conversations with landowners, we can confirm at least one side of this road will be cut back in late september. This is due to the hedge forming part of a conservation area resulting in delays to approval and the need to book traffic management for a road closure. We apologise for the time this is taking to be resolved but we are working to ensure this is dealt with as soon as possibile.
