General Discussion

Just driven back from Teignmouth and can't believe the small hedgeslip still remains just past Holcombe Dip.

It must have happened at least two weeks ago.

See Section 137 of the Highways Act 1980

Appears the land owner could be prosecuted

Try Ashcombe road there are 15 or 20 hedgeslips have phoned highways four times as yet no responce have had to clear some myself so we can get in and out and there is more rain to come.

What's a hedgeslip?

Bit like a BUSH SLIP. 

FredBasset many thanks have now Emailed him i live in hope again many thanks

@leatash. well done hope you get a positive response. here to help anytime

Hedgeslip still there.  Also if you are walking down Smugglers Lane along the seafront to Teignmouth you'll find that the stream has burst from its culvert and the bottom of Smugglers Lane is just fast running water.  There is a barrier across the side path to the sea wall.  You can still walk it but take care and you'll probably get wet feet.

Hedgeslip now cleared

 Still have a problem in Ashcombe Road have emailed phoned may as well talk to the wind for all the good its done i wonder what would happen if i with held some of my council tax

If the hedge in question is owned by an individual it may be part of an insurance claim and therefore they may be unable to do anything at present as the insurance companies are rather busy.

Leatash = do you know how much council tax the local council get to keep ?

local council £200ish

Government the rest,

Therefore council tax not spent on us, spent on MP's in London (oh and abroad)
