26/00844/TN - Trees in Conservation Area Notification Refused

Proposal

G1 - Selective removal of self-set young and semi-mature willow, alder and sycamore from the side embankment up to the top of the slope, to restore appropriate clearance above the car park and to facilitate ongoing inspection and management of the embankment. Removal of T1 and T2 (willow) due to declining condition. Removal of T3, a multi-stemmed willow with an increased likelihood of failure toward the car park. And felling of T4 to prevent predictable future damage to the boundary fence. Data via plota.co.uk

Site constraints 5

Air quality management area: Wolverhampton Air Quality Management Area 2005
The council has declared the area as failing an air quality objective.

Council record ↗
National infrastructure project 132 m away: M54 to M6 Link Road
The site is 132 m from the project boundary. Highway, decided. The project page says whether consent was granted.
Nationally significant infrastructure projects (power stations, electricity lines, pipelines, major roads and railways, harbours, airports and reservoirs) are consented by a Secretary of State under the Planning Act 2008, after an examination by the Planning Inspectorate, rather than by the council. The boundary is the one the Inspectorate consults on and can change as the scheme does. Projects are shown within 2 km of the site.
