Corner of Taddy Close and Ashby Drive

Reported via desktop in the Trees category anonymously at 16:39, Mon 29 July 2024

Sent to Central Bedfordshire Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 409794.

I know you are all busy, however we have written to you numerous times about getting these trees cut back and lowered over the last few years. It is now out of control and unmanageable. If I hadn't cut some of them back the drive would be unusable. The branches and cuttings are back over the wall but there is no more room. Historically I have even paid for it to be cleared but I cannot afford to do so now as they are too big. The debris from the trees has fallen down behind my shed and rotted the back. Please can somebody get this actioned and the area made good again. This is now causing distress to my family. I have a child who is registered disabled and we need good access to our vehicles without the worry of wet leaves, debris and detritus and large overhanging branches. I am not qualified or insured to be cutting these large bushes and trees back. There is also large pyracanthas that have grown to such a hight that they overhang our garden and have caused injury when trying to move them. We have done are upmost to be patient but this cant go on. We are not asking for it to be levelled, just cut back so we can live without worry and stress of this ever increasing plant life taking over that side of our garden. Please can you help us. Thank you Jose Carles
