Weeds and growth is incredibly bad and getting worse on the pathway

Reported via mobile in the Overhanging Trees & Vegetation category anonymously at 17:56, Wednesday 15 July 2026

Sent to Aberdeenshire Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 974818.

The weeds, vegetation and grass is eye level on the path, it is very dangerous for wheelchairs, buggies and children to get through the path. Walkers and walking dogs is awful trying to manoeuvre through the path. This needs to be cut down and debris removed asap.

  • We’ve completed our inspection and were unable to log a defect requiring action by the Roads Service.

    In many cases, this means the issue may relate to land or infrastructure that is not maintained by our service. This could include areas looked after by another part of the Council — such as housing, landscape, or waste services — or by a third party, such as a utility provider, housing association, developer, or private landowner.

    If the situation changes, or if you’re able to provide additional information, you’re welcome to get back in touch. However, if the issue continues to fall outside the Roads Service’s responsibility, it will remain with the appropriate service or owner to address.

    Thank you for bringing this to our attention
