# Trees - General, Richmond Hill Walk, Canterbury, Christchurch 8081, New Zealand

Christchurch · filed 29 January 2026 · report 7637739
https://www.chch.live/report/7637739

> It is so incredibly dark the south side of this single light that I am walking in complete darkness and can’t see if there is anything I might trip over. To be honest I have asked several times for these to be trimmed and this has been ignored. Visibility is great the north side of the light thank you. These trees are on a private property but overhang a busy public walkway . It should not be up to the public to advise a private property to trim their trees over hanging a council owned walkway
