Overgrown Hedges! - Sudha Rai (5th Aug 2010 - 08:48:10) Hello, Does anybody know who is responsible for keeping overgrown hedges trimmed and neat? I have seen one area in Liphook, where the sign to the shops are covered almost completely and feel that the hedge ought to be trimmed back....but by whom?

Re: Overgrown Hedges! - barbara (5th Aug 2010 - 09:39:40) It is the landowners/houseowners responsibility, You would have to find out who they are- usually if EHDC have given the approval for the signs to be installed they will have the information. Highways approval// EHDC planning permission is usually required for signs along the verges otherwise they could be deemed to be a danger to traffic.

Re: Overgrown Hedges! - Sudha (6th Aug 2010 - 02:57:57) Many thanks,Barbara. I was referring to the sign that says Station and shopping area at the junction of Portsmouth Road and Station Road. The hedge has almost covered the sign completely. I will get in touch with EHDC and /or the owner of the property there. Sudha.
