Decision outlook
Day 429, past the statutory target. 97% of tree works in Colchester are decided within thirteen weeks; extensions of time are common, and the council need not decide on the day. Last seen undecided on 1 Nov 2026.
Plota live figures for tree works decided across the UK in the last twelve months, from validation; too few recent tree works in Colchester to go on. Colchester decision record →
