# Overgrown Vegetation, 1 Sorrel Gate, Canterbury, Christchurch 8025, New Zealand

Christchurch · filed 6 February 2026 · report 7693420
https://www.chch.live/report/7693420

> The shrubs on council ground at the corner of Sorrel and Burbank block the driver’s view to left and right when exiting Sorrel Gate. This is a traffic hazard and previous shrub trimming only lasts a couple of months before new growth blocks the view again. Can the shrubs be replaced?
