Hillsdale Ct/Drive - Invasives in ROW near stop sign. • White mulberry (Morus alba) • Rose of Sharon • Sweet autumn clematis & Asian bush honeysuckle (Lonicera maacki) attacking an otherwise healthy silver maple.
Low hanging branch of what looks like an invasive bush honeysuckle. Needs pruned back or even better removed and replaced with a non-invasive plant.
Vegetation from the yard (North of driveway) is six inches into the street.
Vegetation growing into roadway. It is thorny and a hazard to cyclists or automotive finish. I understand the vegetation is allowed to grow wild within the property, but this is clearly impinging upon the travel lane of Hillsdale Drive.
Excessive growth in the front yard is spreading and leaning into the street as there is no curb in this stretch of Hillsdale. If one were to take a flat blade shovel, one could scrape 4-6 inches of vegetation off the asphalt between 229 and 225.
When it rains, water sheds to the west off the B-Line and drops sediment on the sidewalk along Kirkwood. It seems preferable that the water would shed toward Morton Street where the storm water drains can other job. The sediment deposit from the rain last week is still covering the sidewalk on the north side of Kirkwood.
