👉 Encroachments are physical structures that have been built on top of or between other structures, such as buildings, roads, and waterways. These encroaching structures can cause damage to the surrounding area, disrupt traffic flow, and pose a safety risk for pedestrians and vehicles. Encroachments can be caused by natural factors such as erosion, wind侵蚀, and weather侵蚀, or human activities such as construction, clearing land, and building new structures.
