26/0447/TTPO - Works to TPO trees Approved

Proposal

Trees at Boxworth Road This is a retrospective TPO and conservation area application for emergency tree works. Two dead Scots Pine trees had partially collapsed and were leaning over a busy bus stop. Debris from these trees was already present on the road, indicating ongoing instability and a significant hazard. Works were carried out using a MEWP, and both dead trees were dismantled and removed to near ground level. Arisings were stacked on site in habitat piles where appropriate. The aim of these works was to remove the immediate risk and liability for the client, and to ensure the safety of the public and surrounding area. Both trees showed clear evidence of significant decay, supporting the need for urgent intervention. Data via plota.co.uk
