COMPLAINTS are growing about vegetation crowding on to footpaths across Alresford.
The town council heard that the county council is usually responsible for maintaining clear ways but that it was often failing.
Councillor Roy Gentry said: “The real answer is to spend a bit of money and for us to do it in July of every year. Hampshire County Council should be doing it.
“We maintain the Millennium Footpath. The county is responsible but they do not do it. If they do do it, it is in March or September, either too early or too late. The path is a major tourist attraction which is why we took the decision to cut it back.”
