Overgrown hedges in Aughton have been cut back after MP Rosie Cooper backed a local mum's safety campaign.
In October, she launched a campaign to have overgrown bushes on Moss Delph Lane and Liverpool Road cut back ‘before a child is killed.’
She repeatedly asked the County Council for them to be cut back with the authority issuing an enforcement notice to the landowner about them.
The MP raised concerns with the environment and transport director at LCC highlighting the danger they were posing to pedestrians.
She told QLocal: "I am pleased that Lancashire County Council have reacted to the concerns residents have raised about the overgrown hedges on Moss Delph Lane with the path regularly used by children walking and cycling to schools nearby.
“The hedging encroached so much onto the small pavement, it was forcing pedestrians onto the highway at a busy junction with the A59."
