Dear Haringey Council.

I am reporting an obstructed and unsafe section of footway caused by the mature street tree outside 9 Commonwealth Road, Tottenham, London N17 0PL. Attached is a picture showing the position clearly.

This is not a pruning or overgrowth issue. The problem is the width and surface condition of the footway at the base of the tree:

1. The trunk and surface root growth occupy most of the footway width. The clear width remaining between the root flare and the kerb face is approximately [MEASURE IN MM] mm, which is below the minimum footway widths in the Department for Transport's Inclusive Mobility guidance.

2. The surfacing around the base of the tree is broken, patched and lifted by root growth, creating a trip hazard with a lip of approximately [MEASURE IN MM] mm.

3. Vehicles parked at the kerb regularly overhang the footway at this exact pinch point, reducing the usable width further.

4. There is a significant quantity of broken glass across the tree pit and surrounding footway, plus dumped refuse.

The practical effect is that a wheelchair user, mobility scooter user or anyone with a double buggy cannot pass and must divert into the carriageway.

I am not requesting removal of the tree. I would ask the Council to inspect and consider: reprofiling and resurfacing the footway around the root plate; adjusting the tree pit or kerb line to recover usable width; measures to prevent vehicle overhang at the pinch point; and immediate clearance of the broken glass, which is the most urgent element.

Please confirm a reference number and the outcome of the inspection.

A van full of rubbish I reported weeks ago is still sitting on the corner abandoned. It has now had the engine removed so it's definitely not roadworthy. I assume this is fly tipping and abandoning a car at the same time. They probably got paid to clear gardens and then dumped the vehicle instead of delaying with the waste -38 Sutherland Road, Tottenham, London, N17 0BN
