Thank you for bringing this to our attention. As streets and sidewalks are considered for reconstruction items such as pinch points at trees and other obstructions will be addressed. Solutions to pinch point will often require a significant community process.

Please ask the homeowners to trim their shrubbery back to the edge of the sidewalk.

This is the expected behavior for homeowners and this shrubbery has gotten way too large and is infringing on the sidewalk space to an extent to make the sidewalk impassible.

I do not believe this meets City of Cambridge standards.

Homeowner trimmed the shrubs and is passable now.
