  • I believe some of the branches have been trimmed, the ones overhanging the wall but I would still like to see some of the other branches overhanging the road / parking space removed.

  • Thank you for your feedback regarding the branches overhanging the road and parking bays. Low branches that are causing a physical obstruction are removed so please advise if the branches are causing an obstruction. Higher branches that are not causing an obstruction and overhanging the road and parking bays are not removed unless there is a risk to public safety. Healthy branches overhanging the highway do not pose a risk to public safety.
