Parents and disabled people have been forced to walk along a 'dangerous' stretch of road after a wall collapsed during a crash two years ago.
A temporary barrier was built around the rubble following the smash on Redland Hill in 2017.
But no progress bas been made in fully reopening the footpath because Spire Hospital has been trying to find out who owns the wall and how to fix it.
However, Bristol City Council yesterday announced it will be repairing the wall immediately.
Several people have taken to website Fix My Street to blast authorities for leaving the temporary barriers for 24 months.
One mum wrote: "There is a temporary bollarded walkway in place which is far too narrow for buggy users, wheelchairs etc and regularly collapses, drains badly and is unsightly.
"I live very close by and need to push my baby twins in a double buggy which cannot fit between the temporary bollards.
"These roadworks force me, and many others, to have to cross the road further up from Durdham Park to Grove Road in a very dangerous position without the benefit of the zebra crossing and where cars regularly drive too fast leading in to the roudabout.
"It's particularly dangerous in dark and wet conditions. I'm genuinely really concerned my buggy will get driven into."
Another user wrote: "I witnessed an elderly man pushing an elderly woman in a wheelchair on the road for several hundred yards due to the footpath being closed and all the bollards haven fallen over.
"The opposite footpath was also shut in places due to tree felling but they could not cross any way due to traffic. I am amazed they were not hit."
A Bristol City Council spokeswoman said due to the length of time of the dispute, the authority now plans to step in and repair the structure.
She said: "The wall, which is owned by Spire Hospital, was damaged by a road traffic collision.
"While the hospital has been pursuing a claim for the cost of rebuilding the wall from the drivers insurance company, we have put in place a traffic management arrangement to ensure the safety of people using the route. The area is regularly inspected and maintained by us.
"We have been in regular communication with Spire Hospital and have made every effort to help resolve the issue as quickly as possible.
"Due to the length of time the claim is taking, we have proposed an agreement where council approved contractors will rebuild the wall imminently.
