G1 Mixed species group of mainly Sycamores and Limes to lift over pavement and road to clear by 5.0 , only over the highway (overhanging road side). G2 Row of limes to thin by 15% (Thin by 15% to allow more light penetration and the growth of understorey shrubs). T5 Pine to cut back by 1.0- 2.0 M on the flats side (to clear flats).
