The trees and bamboo are blocking the sidewalk.

Segment of sidewalk on east side of Sare Road between E Winston St and E Moores Pike is extremely is difficult to walk due to vegetation growing on and through fence. Walkers/runners/cyclists are forced to walk/run/ride on grass.
Trucks and equipment are always blocking this sidewalk. For over the past year and still daily. Some trucks are also parked illegally and are too far out into the street. This needs to stop, it's been going on way too long. And the workers don't seem to care about the residents. I saw a blue truck turn and block the road and start backing up in front of a older man riding his bicycle, and the man was clearing visible, and had to come to a quick stop, even though he had the right of way.
Since this building is no longer a garage, it seems that a full curb should be installed to prevent people from pulling up on the sidewalk. There are constantly cars parked on the sidewalk here (several feet in past the yellow painted curb (which is flattened because it used to be a garage). I asked the tenants to stop, and then today a dumpster showed up on the sidewalk. This is the North side of the "FAR" gallery building at fourth and rogers. Obviously this is frustrating to me but it's probably pretty annoying for the kid in a wheelchair who i see going back and forth to school and having to cross the street to get around.
On the north side of Grimes the sidewalk is blocked by a tree branch hanging down and touching the ground. I had to go out into the street to get around. This was west of Henderson, and I think it was a little east of Palmer.
