As a blind person, I find that congested pavements make shopping a constant struggle. Bikes, cars, bins, overgrown hedges are regularly blocking my progress on the pavement. There appears to be no enforcement against these obstructions and no easy way of reporting them to Camden Council. When I last tried to report a massively overgrown hedge on my street, which I had cut my face on, it took weeks of going round in circles with the Council, various departments and officials, before any action was taken. We need a more direct route to getting these problems sorted out.
Mary, I agree, what can we do? Where do we report it?
If you want to comment on how such obstructions impact on you then you could report to us and we could run a story on it. You can email [email protected] Please note though that we are not able to directly resolve such issues. That would still be the council.
