Overgrown hedge which is dangerous due to dead trees

Reported via desktop in the Encroachment of the Highways by Trees or Shrubs category anonymously at 16:56, Fri 13 September 2024

Sent to Shropshire Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 14155195.

This hedge has not been cut this year and has not been maintained for several years. The hedge grows outwards into the road and visibility for cars coming down the road and coming onto the road from drives is impeded. The hedge has been allowed to grow upwards and contains many ash "trees" which have died from ash die-back. These will start to fall into the road, risking both the electricity line and road users.
