Requires immediate attention, not up to 6weeks wait!

Reported via mobile in the Passage-Obstructed/Overgrown category anonymously at 22:50, Wednesday 8 July 2026

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. ref: 9757030.

Given this should surely be accessible at all times as a right of way a possible wait of up to 6weeks for the first planned cut of the year seems much too late. I was repeatedly scratched trying to use this path yesterday, the stinging nettles are at eye level. May I ask when the second planned cut is during “peak growing season” if it could be mid August before the first cut?
