Farmers take note
One resident has followed up the complaint to highways and told them they are in breach of HSE Guidelines
http://www.hse.gov.uk/pubns/ais21.pdf
Where it states:
"The Local Highway Authority may require debris to be cleared within a specified time after work is completed. Leaving any debris on the road may create offences under the Highways Act."
Their bold type not mine.
More to follow.

Have any other citizens out there been spiked by hedge cuttings on lanes or pavements and think my poor dogs feet, my pram tyres, my child's shoes, car tyres ?
The failing flailing operators should be made to clean up ITS THE LAW.
I am concerned that some of the guilty are paid to do this vandalism from the County Council purse and blatenly break Health and Saftey Executive Guidelines

Further thoughts if this debris is swept to the side of the road what is the effect when it enters road drains !
Perhaps one of our well paid consultants could discover the obvious a matrix of wood will restrict collect debris and BLOCK.
No wonder drains block and roads flood !
I suggest drains should be covered until an effective cleanup is carried out.
I would love to see the training record of the staff who leave the mess it would make interesting reading.
The managers in charge should fall on a sword ( pointed stick )

A real pity you took the vidio after the clean up and could not fully demonstrate the deep carpet of thorns that hid the pavement completly for 5 days!
No action until the police involved and highways agency !
On the spot fines for litter
surely this is hazadous litter ? Impossible to walk upon
