The mum, who doesn't want to be named, took a picture of the treacherous route she was forced to take from her home in the village of Swancote to Bridgnorth town centre to pick up her car from a garage.

The "dangerous" and overgrown A454

The young woman said she had to walk west along the A454, which she branded “dangerous” with her baby to retrieve her car from Bridgnorth's Low Town.

Now she is appealing for the council to cut the overgrowth back before somebody gets hurt.
