Unable to repair street light L2EOS because of trees

Reported via desktop in the Restricted Visibility / Overgrown / Overhanging category anonymously at 13:56, Thu 6 November 2025

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. ref: 8384869.

We are unable to repair street light L2EOS as we can't get access to it because there are trees overgrowing it from ground level up to the lantern. We also cannot get our vehicles down the footpath because trees and bushes are restricting the width of the footpath. Please can you arrange for the trees and bushes to be trimmed from around the door all the way up to the lantern
