Overgrown trees which are not cut when the farmer cuts hedges on a road. This part of land as I know belongs to Balgove farm. I am not sure who is responsible for cutting trees on this country road as going further to 90 degrees bend up Lismore house, I usually cut the branches but I am getting old and is definitely not my responsibility. They don’t even belong to me or it close to my land.

    This defect has been added to our works programme and will be scheduled accordingly.

    • To be Completed by: 20/07/2027

    • Road speed limit: 60

    The date shown above represents the latest target for completion based on our current programme of works. This may be brought forward where resources, operational priorities, or coordination with other activities allow. Defects assessed as posing a higher risk are prioritised for earlier repair whenever possible.
